The Space In Between

You know the times, when you wake up in the morning and stare blankly into the ceiling, and wonder, "What should I do today?" That's basically my life. Real fun. Life's like a neverending cycle of contradictions. Waiting in earnest for exams to be over, only to dread the boredom of having nothing to do in the holidays. Perhaps its just me, but I bet i'm not the only one. I have to admit that there are things to do, people to meet, games to play, movies to watch, books to read. But always, something missing. Even in the company of friends, the lingering feeling is always there, like a phantom stalking me, ready to pounce at me the moment the fun and laughter stops. That's the emptiness I feel, which seems to paint my surroundings grey and dull, bleak and inanimate. Emptiness, the place in between, a place where no one else can enter, that time just seems to stand still......

Intimacy

I miss you...
I love you...


First Kiss -- by -Emptiness-

I held her tightly, in my arms,
As we laid on the bed, still and calm.
Her moist warm breath, caressed my cheeks,
And at her lovely face, I stole a peek.

I felt her heartbeat, through her blouse,
As I whispered her name, but she didn't rouse.
With fingers running, through her hair,
For the very first time, my lips I shared.

The moment still, vivid and clear --
I nibbled her lips, like a grazing deer.
Her arms quivered, her lips they stirred,
And slowly upon mine, their all conferred.

Her honeyed lips, beckoned me in,
As a tingle feeling, raced through my skin.
My mouth took on, a life of its own,
With a tender kiss, for its sins atone.

As our tongues met, in a sweet embrace,
Our yearning lips too, picked up their pace.
Like kittens lapping up, their milk in bliss,
Our tender nibbles became a passionate kiss.

Lost in our world, a wondrous dream,
My eyes glisten, with tears about to stream.
So sweet, so calm, so warm, so close,
Desperately I yearned for more of this intimate dose.

For how long did our lips connect?
We cast time aside, as we continued unchecked.
Neither wanting to pause or relent,
Neither feeling satisfied, fulfilled or content.

But time was not on our side,
As hard as we tried to from it hide.
Reluctantly, our lips parted.
We held on tightly, as we did before it all started.

Gazing into each other’s eyes,
Both not wanting to arise.
Reliving the memory of the kiss,
That fleeting moment, of absolute bliss.

Disclaimer: First kiss, as in first, proper, deep, passionate kiss... =)... Cause technically, the first kiss I had was yesterday -_"-
