People can underrate a simple kiss
the pleasure of showing affection,
Such a small intimate action as this
can illicit much bigger, deeper reaction
Two lips locking in that special bond
of one inter-connected body together,
Takes one to initiate, one to respond
how they enjoy it is a good measure,
For kissing can be tender or passionate
deep and lingering, shallow and sweet,
And those who can be in a right state
will want even more, demand a repeat,
Kissing is a craft to be practiced a lot
something you can improve on in time,
That some people this intimacy forgot
to me is unfortunate, a romantic crime,
Kissing doesn't need to lead to sex at all
it can be enough when done so right,
For it can be addictive, lead to enthral
be measured in places all of the night,
And it isn't wearing, tiring, or grating
so long as you adhere to social rules,
To get their heart and mind pulsating
make sure you've got the right tools,
Fresh breath, soft lips, tongue your side
soft start, ebb and flow, not too sloppy,
Get to enjoy and savour the warm ride
if they melt in your arms and go floppy,
Then somehow it's working, get air
and don't overwhelm them all at once,
Remember it's a marathon, have a care
react to telling facts in their response.
