Kisses

When we said our good-byes that day
And the tears rained down my face
I didn't think it would be the last kiss
Pressed warmly on my lips.
But you were so far away
It seemed like another world
I let another creep deceptively
Into my heart.
I foolishly gave in
And when his lips touched mine
I knew things would never be the same.
He didn't break my heart like you did
It was much easier to let him go.
Still grieving over you
I met my next
His first gentle kiss
Awakened my soul.
I know you and I weren't meant to be
Our spirits were not to connect.
But still I'll never forget
Our last kiss goodbye.
