What is it about a kiss
that invigorates the heart
while filling the soul with bliss?
The tenderness of its touch
eludes to intimacy,
a closeness we crave so much.
It is how we convey love,
igniting the desires
and passions poets speak of.
As a sexual embrace
it transforms reality,
bending the fabric of space.
Healing hurts with its magic
it makes small pains go away
and bigger ones less tragic.
A sensual soft caress
that physically imbues
feelings you cannot express.
A kiss is a promise made,
a show of sentiment and
an emotional band-aid.
A personal connection
moist lips pressed against hot flesh,
in a pledge of affection.

This is terrific
This describes a kiss
In more ways than I could.
Much of this I would miss,
But you have understood!

Lovely long kiss.
Did I know the various pros and cons of the act?
Hard to say in truth for a kiss is just a kiss flamed in love not a peck.
Lol
and if your lungs cant hold out see the crush break out in long breaths.

That's true. Kisses always make things better. Good depiction of an old favorite American pasttime.
