Poem #17

Dior 999

The bright red lipstick is revealing.
Dior 999,
I shouldn’t have bought it,
but I did.

Since I have bought it, I want to try it.
I’ll put it on and I’ll go visit you.

We see each other

middle of the night
same dark spot
no one seeing us
you’ll notice my lipstick

you’ll wanna kiss me,
you’ll wanna taste the lipstick,
to bite my red lips,
to know if you could leave
my lips
as red
from all the kissing.

And the red lipstick will lead us
to another place, to a better place,
where
I’ll kiss you even louder,
I’ll kiss you even harder,
I’ll kiss you all over.
And I’ll  kiss your neck
and I’ll accidentally leave a red mark on your shirt
from all the kisses,

for that when you walk back home
and you go to bed with her
the red lipstick reveals
all of your adventures.
