The Last Kiss
the last kiss is not something i will forget
no more for me,
no more for you
but i will never forget us
even when everything is new
the last kiss and it is goodbye and farewell
i woke you that morning,
i watched you get out of bed
i let you slip out of my arms
and i watched you go back to him
you left but the bed remained warm
the last kiss and the last time i smelt you
your scent upon my pillow
the last kiss and it is goodbye and farewell
i will not forget you
because you brought alive my world
like things forgotten or deceased
the last kiss and leaving the sheets creased
goodbye, farewell…
i will not forget you
