Sunkissed

Payton Hayes

Free verse
I dreamed you kissed me
and when
I woke,
I was unkissed, and
alone.
So darling, kiss me now,
kiss me like
you did in that dream.
Kiss me with the lips you used to
spit daggers and whisper secrets, and
soothe souls.
Kiss me like the sky kisses the earth
when the sun
sets.
