A kiss that still lingers on my lips

A Poem by Lijo Jose

A poem to describe that its difficult to forget your first love

. Glistening wid water on your body
You were there a mile away ..
I called after you a ten times;
But you were splashing water
Your smile was a little different,
It was not warm rather cold;
Your eyes had gone a bit dark.
I tried to walk away but could not,
As my last wish was to see you again,
And I was glad that I found you.
I put my fears back
Fears of rejection
Fears of your future,
Fear of love.
But I moved forth to embrace them all,
And I came closer to you,
And you just turned back before I called you
As if you knew it was me
As if you still recognized my scent,
Your eyes shined with a tear,
Your smile was a happy one .
You were glad to see me
I didn't know what to do,
To kiss you right there or to hug you
Or a mere handshake to someone I barely knew.
But you pulled me close
Close to your heart
Your heartbeat was too fast.
I felt two bodies and just one soul,
You cupped my face and looked into my eyes,
And I felt your urge to ask.
And I said I do forgive you for the past .
And you pulled me even closer and your lips were on mine urgent and needy
As if I was the last drop of water,
And I pulled back and laughed,
You were laughing the same smile we shared
I was happy and just den..
You were moving too fast.
You were going deep inside..
You were drowning merely dying
I cried.. I tried to save you.
But you were gone ..
I tried to kill myself with you
And I just realized I was in my bed..
But , alas, the kiss still lingers on my lips 😘
