lips.

I have a heart

I have eyes

but

I have never loved in this way

but seen love

or what my heart

& eyes feel love must be

 

two lips 

four lips

or more lips

 

move with words that feel good

felt good becuase they are true

becuase the two lips 

or more lips

are thoughtful

& kind

 

love seems to be lips

that say small things

& say big things

with another in mind--

with best intentions in mind.

 

lips that speak passion,

that are individual

but care with the rest of their body,

wholly & completely

 

I say again,

 

I have a heart

I have eyes

And I feel another's lips on mine

knowing all this

to be wholly, & completely true--

hoping one day to

be,

& beholden

 

such a feeling
