A kiss
By Jessica Orr
I woke up.
I was on a beach,
it didn't remind me
of sand,
a trace film over me
and I was kissed.
______
I loved, and I knew
perfection is mine;
if only for a month,
a film of his breath
will know a private place;
again,
no feelings a wall
and I lie
and I can remember
nothing as grit is a feel.
______
I like sounds
they hear guilt I know,
feelings I used and killed;
they like to not stop,
as i am but a hardened
pebble, I'm sorry god;
______
a beach, it is an end
as land says a name,
I feel a pull,
it sees I am not good;
maybe he'll love me,
if I do what he says.
______
I brush off,
and someday
he will help me pack up lunch;
maybe I won't cry,
as a film hits shower floor;
perhaps happy,
as a filth begot
to forest green,
a cycle
I felt kiss me
