A whispered kiss upon my face,
A game played in a secret place,
A chill from her sweet caress,
Unbound from emotional duress,
A walk through another person's eyes,
Revealing things you can't disguise,
Exchange of oaths and cries of love,
Baring our souls to the gods above,
A moment of passion and a lifetime of bondage,
A blessing from those to whom we've paid homage,
A sudden embrace of laughter and tears,
Using each other to banish our fears,
Forever now linked in pleasure and pain,
Strong enough now to withstand the rain,
An experience we share, both fleeting and timeless,
One eternal kiss to leave us both breathless.
