Nothing Like A Kiss

today,
i kissed a stranger
it came like a dream
i kissed him
—and left with my heart gone
…i don’t know…
for once I felt whole
though my heart was gone
—desires burn my lips
i have to fight against myself
why now? why him? who’s him?
today,
i kissed a stranger
it came like a dream
i kissed him
—and killed my soul
…choking
’twas nothing like a kiss
