first kiss, part II

anna was the first
alice was the first
that meant something
that involved tongues

she too had the experience
i lacked
but that i welcomed
with open arms
and open mouth

we sat on her backdoor steps
and in my heart of hearts
i felt love
and loved
for the first time

there is something about being
literally connected
with someone
at the lips
that changes the world

 

first kiss
