L-O-V-E


How many times have we heard this four letter word?

The first letter
Brushes your top lip with the tip of your tongue,
reminding you of his kisses.

The second letter
Opens your lips in awe,
giving you the chance to go on or stop.

The third letter
Nibbles on your bottom lip,
tightening your body at the rush of memories.

The last letter
Escapes your breath,
leaving you with the taste of cognition from the word you just pronounced.
