The type that picks you up for a drop-off in a different State
of Mind
Leaving you lost in the right direction and unaware of time
An embrace so purposeful and sound that neither the force of the wind
nor the stares of passersby can disrupt it
The kind the brain is unwilling to blur
Because with every 8th minute
the present veers off its natural course and travels back to that enchanting space
to Him
and Me
Planted in front of The Liberty Tree
Back to the heated discussion between lips and to everything felt and poured into that kiss
To hello and goodbye
Stoked intensity
And the eloquent expression of elusive chemistry
* Wrote ‘H Street Kiss' after going on a first and final date with a friend who was moving to Costa Rica the following day. Hands down one of the best kisses I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing!
