Sour words and sweet memories

Kissed me on the playground

And again out in the street

Kissed me on her door step

And once more down on the beach

Another kiss at sunset

A secret one in the woods

A soft one in her bedroom before we went to sleep

She kissed me between her ropes and snares

She kissed me when I bled

She didn’t kiss me when I pleaded

Not even when I wept

I kissed her for her nightmares

I kissed her for her charm

Sadly she didn’t kiss me before I slipped from her arms

I still remember those kisses

And how my blood stained red the snow

But you’ll never find me back there

Not for all the sweet memories in the world
