Hug’s And Kisses

Hug’s and kisses

Fall between us

Like soft petals

Drifting from a tree

That only blooms

When you’re near

Your arms wrap around me

And the world quiets

As if every noise

Bows its head

To let our hearts

Speak first

Your kiss lands

Like a promise

Gentle

Warm

A spark that travels

From my mouth

To my chest

To every place

That remembers you

Hug’s and kisses

Become our language

The way we say

I’m here

The way we say

Don’t go

The way we say

This is love

In its simplest form

And when you hold me

A little longer

Kiss me

A little slower

I feel something

Quiet and certain

That every hug

Is a homecoming

And every kiss

Is a key

To the door

Of us
