I like: to hold
the tip
t
i
p
of my nose to yours,
and trace the outline
of your lips
with my cool, peppermint inhale
and damp, musky exhale.
: to trade breaths with you,
touching nothing but nosetips.
in,
out
,in.
: to eversogently slip,
my dry lips on top of yours
filling your cracks with mine;
whispering love letters
straight
to your soul.
: to gently push
until you give way
and the tip
t
i
p
of my tongue
can scratch the gap
between your two front teeth;
gently blowing air in,
and making you blow out
a sweet,
low,
whistle.
: to brush my teeth
against your bottom lip,
and eversoslowly
separate my face from yours,
physically
at least,
for my soul
will eternally hold
the imprint
of the tip
t
i
p
of your nose.
