Static Lovers

I want to reminisce in the days gone by,
Days I was oblivious,
Days where you still held my hips amd pressed your forehead to mine.

You left me with a kiss,
You thought it was just a kiss,
But that kiss felt warm and inviting and sent me texts during three a.m. panic attacks saying everything would be alright.
That kiss left my lips feeling like pins and needles.

Your body is electric,
Static raising the hairs on the back of my neck as you touch me.
It wasn't just a kiss.
It was agony to which the hole in my heart became it's burial ground.
It was my alarm screaming at me to wake up on a Sunday morning,
And I don't want to be awake let alone drag this corpse of a body out of my bed.
It wasn't just a kiss.

And you weren't just a boy.
You were a god that begged to be reckoned with.
You were a smile on my lips as we watched the stars from our secret place,
The defibrillator to jump start my heart and make me realize I was alive,
And the boy who kissed me as he told me he was leaving.

It wasn't just a kiss.
