movie theater kisses
as the plot thickened,
their kisses became fevers
sweeping them
away from storylines
and actors
to somewhere new,
somewhere true
i watched,
envious
of a reckless abandon
i've never possessed
wishing maybe you
could perform on cue
so i didn't have to second guess
you're fingers
stirring on my thighs
in the way
you'll later learn ihopeihopeihope
drives me crazy
still later,
you catching my tears
and i knew:
i didn't have to
guess again
as credits rolled
our symbolic lovers rolled in
each others seperate dreams
and my lips
cursed me for not offering
a chance at reality
i follow their advice
(or was it divulge
in their desires,
) while my lips rejoice,
my lungs become violent:
it appears
they meant to keep
that breath
i explain
to every internal organ
he's the one
who made me
breathless
but
i didn't know,
boys could kiss
like that
