The Edge of a Kiss
We sneak glances.
We gaze deeply.
Our heads tilt,
ㅤ hoping to fathom the moment.
Fathom each other.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Talking.
Walking.
Leaning towards.
Leaning in.
Trying to know,
ㅤ to discern,
The other.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Joking.
Laughing.
Sipping a beer…
ㅤ Clink!
Your eyes dancing.
Your smile inviting.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Holding hands.
Fingertips tenderly engaging.
Through our palms,
ㅤ emotions exchanging.
Turning face to face.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Moonlight.
Dancing.
Melting towards each other.
Melting against the other.
Cheeks brush.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Learning to see each other.
Openly sharing our depths.
Willingly offering each other more.
More of ourselves.
Moving closer with each of our steps.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
Growing towards One.
Growing towards oneness.
Searching gently for new ways of knowing.
New things to hear.
Bringing our stories together.
We’re on the edge of a kiss.
I see you.
You see me.
We’re on the edge…
The edge of a kiss.
