Your First Kiss

I would like for this poem
to take you back
I would like for it
to take you back to the time
when you first understood
the magic of a kiss
the thinking about who, how,
when and where
and the way it was going
to happen to you
Special as a woman with
these newly found emotions
sweet as the honey dripping
from the hive of your mind
so innocent
so delicate
feeling good about wanting
and needing
passionate affection
thoughts higher than the moon
on a warm summer's night in Cairo
your heart wrapped in
precious gems melted into
a protective sheath
Important is the way
your world will continue
to spend from this point on
for that first touch
of a boys soft hands
and lips upon the soft flesh
of your exterior mouth
will be just enough
for you to trace his face
to a secret place
remember how the pillow
became his first name
followed by the sheets
becoming his full
the way you comforted
your body hoping and wishing
that he will one day
be able to do the same
you admiring your own
techniques on your hands
or with a cousin or girl friend
such a tender young age with
so many questions
hesitant of your approach
to the things that
were important and
also mattered to you the most
lost and frustrated
when the kiss didn't last
longer than you attempted
to hold your breath
helpless and confused
because that young boy
also became aware of
his sexual self which
did not for you and only you exist
setting in now
along with a different attitude
are the first stages of your ability
to become jealous - cute
left with only the memory
of the way you first felt
after experiencing

Your First Kiss

When We First Met

When We First Met

The truth guided my intentions
to be honest and sincere

convicted of falling in love
at first sight after you appeared

my heart paused while thoughts
guided me to the future years

of holding you tightly
romantically and secure beyond compare

my world stopped spinning
because of how strongly you cared

the soul of my envy conquered
my minds jealousy ridding me of all fears

upside down you turned me
inside out you shared

confidence became the royalty
of your beautiful smile held dear

I knew this was the start of
life unknown to man unprepared

breathless, motionless within
this moment I wish to stay right here

our eyes meeting divine
while our dreams beyond the heavens stared

holding on to the righteousness
of our joyous tears

looking past the sky now
you and I now

believing
and achieving and also
succeeding

our goals one in the same
so vivid so clear

similar to the time
