First kisses

You were older
wiser
more worldly
and taken

I was lonely
sixteen
and best friend
to your lover

You saw my lonely heart
and felt it’s impact
like the empath that
you are

You took my head
held me tight
showed me beauty
standing at the bus stop

Not the physical kind
just the human part
you thought a kiss could fix
my broken heart

You didn’t know
I’d not been kissed before
and your heart hurt to learn
what you took from me

I knew where I stood with you
and I knew
what you meant
I felt your love for me
in that
single
first
kiss
