I am lost for words today perhaps
I need those superfluous
Words that might convince
You to come back to me
Throws your arms
Around gently but passionately
Kiss me on my thirsty mouth.
And as my first tear drops
And slides down my cheek
Which is rare considering my being a hopeless cynic
But still
You’d balance that single tear on
One of your lips
And then bring them to me
It would be the only salty and not the usual
Sweet kiss shared by us but would
I think be enough to resolve all the bitterness between us.
If only I found those words.
