A Scar for a Kiss

By XCryingMinotaurX

I rushed to him and fell

down
hard
bleeding

I rushed to him and showed him the wound

red
pain
blood

And with those lovely brown eyes upon me, he took my arm and kissed my wound

faint
heartbeat
love

Time passes, and after his kiss, my wound is nothing more than a mark, a memory, a scar...

I rush to him yet again

fast
needy
blind

And with those lovely brown eyes upon me, he kissed my body and kissed my lips

want
need
desire

Time passes, and after his kiss, all I have left of him is a mark, a memory, a scar...
