Groundhog Day

I will remember kissing you on the street

in the rain

The droplets sliding down our faces and lips

you in my arms

I pull you so close to my aching body

hearing your heart

Playing with the metal ball

in your tongue

Your soft lips are so warm

on mine

People on the street stop and look

but not us

We are only there for one

another

The world stops around us stops

for us

For that rain that February day would never

parch our thirst
