Elusive
engraved on the memory of my lips
carved deep into my heart
our first kisssummoned by a thought
the moment draws me back
to reenact it in my mindthe time and place... the way you looked
the words I used... and your reply
a year ago
another kiss
elusive, this one
no special moment to enshrine itthe place and time ambiguous...
shared in passion or in solace
did it speak of promise... or forgivenessit resists my clinging to it,
dancing just beyond reach
on my heart's edgeI ache,
just praying
it was not our last
~the end~
