The First Kiss Poem by Sayantan Jana

The First Kiss

Rating: 4.5


Drums beat hard deep within,
Puzzled mind and a heart too keen.
Bright lit eyes with burning fire,
Nervous smile and a shy stare.

Deep down somewhere the oceans churn,
Columns of smoke while desires burn.
Trembling feet and an unsure grip,
Moments of joy and moments to weep.

Slowly the distance drifts away,
Cutting the reins from emotions at bay.
Closer and closer yet so far,
Mind and heart in a silly war.

The storms meet each other and collide,
Hotter and hotter it grows upright.
Drenched in the ocean salt and sweet,
Crisply before the fleshes meet.

Trembling fingers pull her close,
Way ward emotions running lose.
Eyes shuts drenched in it,
Teeth within bite the grit.

Tore apart in the silly war,
Finally gives up to desire.
Letting the chill run down the spine,
Through her through mine.

Minds set free from judging amiss,
The eternal eternal first kiss.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I was very young, possibly 16, when I had the privilege to experience that special first kiss. After many years, this is an attempt to relive those emotions again.
