Kiss

smear

she left a stain

everywhere she went

applying it everyday before going

and every night before bed.


No one questions

the color that is her name

she turns heads, breaks hearts

and never looks back again.


The author's comments:

This poem was also inspired by a journal entry, I like it because of the implication of the word ‘red’, although no words that reference heat or love are used to portray it, besides the title.
