the kiss

our kiss at the edge of a precipice
by the zephyr’s caress we are bound
celestial beings mirror this bliss
that we creatures of earth holy be crowned

a kiss so slow that even time forgets
while the world wearies, its woes are consumed
in blue moments of resplendent sunsets
of glorious rays that silence the doomed

we do not kiss only for kissing’s sake
the resounding echoes across the spheres
are bathed in essences left in our wake

sacred act that transports and reveres
the kiss is libation and blessing both
so do I pledge thee my most solemn troth
