This poem can be interpreted one of two ways, love or death. The reading can imagine the circumstance where you look into the eyes of a significant other, and they blow you a kiss. You are stunned by this instance, and when you come in for a kiss the distance dwindles, and then when you meet for the kiss there is silence. On the other hand, one could read this as a circumstance as death. The gaze being headlights or a person, the whistling kiss a bullet, or collision. The feelings evoked could be the instance before death, and the count down the time until death.
