Your Kisses

A Poem by 12.09am

Him

Your Kisses

It was something we shared

yet it doesn’t compare

To the way you look at her

But at me in despair

Passionate and bold

Emotionless and cold

You look at her with hope

But me? you hardly cope

The way you kiss me,

Like you are happy

The way you kiss her,

Full of liquor

What is real?

I cannot deal

It’s all a lie

My eyes cry

Your kisses made me feel alive

But now you’ve left me to survive

Your kisses are like the sky

But all they are is a lie

Your kisses may be a beautiful art

But all I ever wanted was your heart

A poem about kisses and love. A perfect poem.
"Your kisses may be a beautiful art
But all I ever wanted was your heart"
The above lines. Honest and true. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

I also see where you could split the two into separate poems however within our despair we do often reflect on what we had. So I can see how you were led to the second half. Still beautiful pain to express and provoking.

It's painful when someone loves you but can't control their drinking and have a tendency to stray.
Good poem.

I think the formatting and the poem is good in content overall, though it feels almost like two ideas -- one of losing a love to another, and one of an fwb relationship that the speaker wanted more from -- likely it is the two, that just need a line or two to fill in the blanks.
