we kiss

we kiss until
something-o’clock
because time can just
fuck off while we’re
together

we kiss like
first-time anytime
lovers
embraced, entranced
in the moment
unforgiving

we kiss as equals
completely involved
into depths undiscovered
by any kiss before
ours

we kiss
petrified of losing
something precious

we kiss and we
forget that we
just might be
human

we kiss as if we’re
knots tied tighter
and tighter

we kiss hungry
and energetic,
sex-tasted and
lust-lathered

we kiss our pasts away,
we kiss our future closer

we kiss now

and we know everything
we need to know
about love

and the possibility of
loss
