We Kissed

An Original Poem by @CarlieEster

We kissed
And red lipstick stained your mouth like flowers pressed
Where dry met wet
And in a secret moment
We kissed
We kissed
I tied your tongue
Across your heart
and hoped
To kiss again before the flower dies
Dry on a page
Pressed like the rolling ink of a signature
Two names tied together
But
We kissed
And red lipstick fell in waves
Rushing over warm dry skin
Flooding a desert
Turning it to flowers
And drowning every other thought
Because where dry meets wet
Everything goes damp
And the blooming flower wilts
Because we kissed.

Thank you for reading.

me n my poem
we have a relationship
can't really pin it
we've never kissed
