Kisses in the Clouds

When he kissed her,
                                she was set free.
His warm lips
                          pressed so tenderly--
against her own.

She could never ask for a happier death.
Her very body turned to mush in his arms.

                      She began to float away
              on a fluffy cloud
of blissful tranquility.

However,
        that might be due to lack of oxygen.

She dreaded the very thought--
                                  of coming up for air.

Deciding she would rather turn blue--
                         then loose sweet contact.

                        When they finally parted--
He left her with a deliciously foreign
                                  taste on her tongue.

But--it did not stop there!

A tingling--
      racing along every fiber of her being.
An unforgettable feeling.

Like an imprint--
                            No!  
                                        Like a brand.
