PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I implicitly asked you for a passionless kiss,

One that was devoid of any emotion whatsoever

Because I didn’t want for you to remind me of

What I’ve been missing all these long months.



But you're unable to display your sheer apathy.

Despite how much you make me think otherwise

You can speak volumes without uttering a word

With your tender stare and your roaming hands.



The last kiss didn’t taste bitter like I expected

Because I knew of the spite you have for me.

It tasted just as sweet as any other as if it had  

Every intention of being the first of many more.



But the kiss doesn't look out for our best interests,

It just wants to spread ache and longing like a virus;  

A poison dripping from rosy lips that does not heal

But only infects those whose objective is to move on.
