FIRST KISS

Fat kids don’t have girlfriends.
Friends yes, but not kissing,
not even in third grade.
So imagine my surprise
when once, in the backseat 
of our 77’ Caddy,
on the drive home
from the 3rd grade birthday party,
Tonya, her quiet eyes in mine,
put her braid on my shoulder,
and kissed me, twice. 
The first kiss struck my nose,
then squarely she found my lips. 
The next day at school,
I spent hours staring 
out the window, my shoulder 
bending in memory of the braid.
My fingers pushed against my mouth,
trying to remember the cold
suddenness of her lips and breath
that made me.

SPECIAL LOVE POEMS FOR GIRLFRIENDS

  Her eyes are like the stars in the sky, Her sweetest smile is what makes me  high. Sometimes I wish I  could hug her forever, And till the end of our life, be  together. Thank God for  making me meet this  angel, Who has made my ordinary life so very special. I promise to love you till the end of my life, let me be your hero, my beloved, my wife. If i could  give you one  thing in life, i would give you the ability to  see yourself through my eyes only then would you realize how special you are to me. Sometimes i wonder if love is worth  fighting for, but then i remember your face and i'm ready for war. You never fail to  amaze me everyday there is  something new that makes me love you even more than the day before.
