How About a Kiss Goodnight?
October 2, 2013
After awkward shrugs and several 'why-nots',
I still stiffened when you hand cupped my cheek.
We weren't in love or
Even good friends but
We were caught in
Mutual tragedy.
You stand brave and tall and skinny and beautiful,
But when you inched closer–and
My breath hitched and
Our minds blanked–
Your lips,
Both soft and hard against mine,
Trembled.
