a kiss
a kiss is a clue to the heart
a window that lets light impart
or hides you away in
the dark
the dark can consume and it will
your will an enemy still
and it will be forever until
you kiss and tell
me what you're thinking
kiss and tell
tell me what you believe
are you brave enough
have faith enough
to stay
truth
truth is the one thing we trust
worthy of all that we must
give up to gain to matter what
what if the road's not paved with ease
what if storms are all you see
will you kiss and leave
or stay and still believe
don't trade your inheritance
for a moments worth of pleasure
it only adds to emptiness
a world of worthless treasure
