Or

Is it a kiss

That confirms that giddy feeling

On both sides,

From both people?

Or

Is it a kiss

That simply tests the waters,

Fueling the shared curiosity

Just as much as the shared uncertainty?

Or

Is it a kiss

That loses its feeling

The more it repeats,

As the spark of the first time fades away?

Or

Is it a kiss

That confirms the parting of that giddy feeling

On both sides,

Both secretly knowing this kiss will be the last?

Or

Is it a kiss

That turns the lives

Of two unsuspecting victims

Upside-down?

Or

Is it a kiss

That means absolutely nothing at all,

As numb lips meet

Lifeless faces?

Or

Is it a kiss

That once meant the world

On both sides,

To both people,

But now is nothing but an empty kiss.
