The kiss

Just one kiss. Just one kiss.
It’s a heaven and an abyss.
It’s too little but too much –
Of your lips a single touch.

Just one kiss. Your only kiss.
That’s all from you I truly miss.
The lust will remain unknown
For the wet of lips alone.

Intrigues are weaved among the stars,
Leaving everlasting scars.
Press your fiery lips on mine,
Or I will get old and die.

In absence of your lava kisses –
Springy water simply freezes.
All the stars will remain still.
And I’ll be a mortal ill.

What’s a kiss? What is the trick?
I plainly craved it, like a sick.
It is a holy and a sin.
With a kiss, it ends and begins.

The first kiss – a sign of trust,
When life starts that it will last.
The final kiss that you will give –
Is to the body that once lived.

Smashed by COVID

The flag is lowered halfway,
No one stays at ease.
She has gone, so far away.
God, rest her in peace.

The squad isn’t looking brave-
Not all are in the formation.
One of us is in the grave.
The very gruesome equation.

Not just bullets will us kill –
That’s an exclamation!
Sure, the damned COVID-19
It’s not an aberration!
