i kissed you longer than forever
and made forever feel so close:
below the moon and mellow street lights,
below the hush of soothing snow,
i felt my cold-heart melting
like the snowflake on your nose.
i kissed you longer than forever
and saw a future in your eyes:
chasing sunsets in Barcelona,
sharing dreams under Paris skies—
and the wine we drank in Sicily!
(well that’s between us and time.)
i kissed you longer than forever. . .
then watched forever leave at dawn.
