The Kiss
I was sulking - over what I don't remember anymore.
He paid it no mind and instead, playfully wrapped an arm around my neck and rocked it back and forth - not quite a bear hug, more of a cub strangle.
I shot him a mock-dagger look only to be met by a pair of eyes twinkling with mischief. He was bad news : the "town whore" was an accurate - if loving - moniker. And yet, when he drew me closer, I didn't bother to resist.
I closed my eyes as our lips met in a moist, tender kiss. He had full lips - the kind I like to nibble and suckle on when I smooch. It was warm in that crooked embrace, and in this brash, boisterous, flirtatious boy I caught a glimpse of my old self again.
And then we kissed some more, and I remember thinking how good it was to kiss. To surrender to passion, to lust, to sexual excitement again - even if love wasn't in the equation.
Our lips parted. I opened my eyes to look at him.
And then I woke up.

Vivid. Lucid. When reality fails, we'll make our own.
ReplyDeleteoh ruddie, i didn't know you could be exquisitely lyrical!
ReplyDeletesayang nabokya. try ko someday makipagkiss sayo tapos babasahin ko yung lyrical translation.
ReplyDeletei hate that i don't remember my dreams. even dreams like that. sigh.
ReplyDeleteso anticlimactic! haha...i was expecting more drama, rudeboy. :-) love the detailing, though.
ReplyDelete@ Sonia : Egads. Do I strike you as a drama queen, then? As Fergie so eloquently sang: "No, no drama. You don't want no drama."
ReplyDeleteAnticlimactic? That I would have to wholeheartedly agree with. It was the complete opposite of a wet dream, which naturally left me high and dry.
@ engel : I only remembered because I wrote it down as soon as I woke up.
@ Ming : Are you propositioning me, Ming Meows?
@ Ternie : My prose is scads better than my poetry.
@ red : Vivid. As in Video.
But snarking aside, yes, it was so lucid, and so real. I could still feel the warmth moments after I awoke.
of course well KNOW what that warmth on your pillow and blankets was.
ReplyDeletelolz
@ Ternie : No, I stopped salivating on my pillows in my sleep when I was 7.
ReplyDeleteis it just me or is this such a departure from your previous posts. i dunno. i really like it. i don't think it's anticlimactic at all. i think it pulls out before the complications settle.
