A Single Kiss

A Single Kiss

If ones name is but a glimpse of their soul
Then we are simple machines on cruise control
When you put a name on a term such as love
Then it is merely but a concept you speak of
For desires so rich, not a single word can describe
No wealth in this world enough to my heart bribe

A bed of roses merely a vision of nature's beauty
For it was I that to you, failed to perform my duty
To your door I've tried and tried many times to knock
But you only slam the door, and closed it with a lock
On the exterior, you showed nothing and stood so tough
That this word called love would never be enough

But there I stood, hoping for a chance, a beginning anew
That day in my heart, looking in your sweet eyes I knew
At this moment, I realized that I only had a single shot
That then our hearts would melt like chocolate in a pot
Eye to eye, we shared a gaze, one of eternal bliss
For it was that day we together shared a single kiss
