I want to kiss you
Like they do in the movies
Full of anguish and yearning
Yet sweet and slow
I want the taste of you
Left on my tongue
Long after it’s over
I want to feel
Love and sentiment
Dripping and smothered
Between two different worlds
And two different minds
I want to see
Light clouds
From warm breaths
With my eyes half-closed
I want our arms
Wrapped around each other
My fingers tracing
The fine hairs
At the nape of your neck
