May I kiss you?
Just for today
Just for an instant-
A moment-
Just for a day
May I kiss you?
May I kiss you?
In the rain
In the snow-
In the spring-
Just for a season
May I kiss you?
May I kiss you
Just for a moment
For alas I know
Not of the future
And even a kiss today
Is more than I can dream.

May I kiss you?
Just for today
Just for an instant-
A moment-
Just for a day
May I kiss you?
May I kiss you?
In the rain
In the snow-
In the spring-
Just for a season
May I kiss you?
May I kiss you
Just for a moment
For alas I know
Not of the future
And even a kiss today
Is more than I can dream.
This is about all the times where I wanted to ask a stranger or someone I hardly knew for a kiss. All the thoughts of walking down a crowded street and seeing a young beauty and asking her for a kiss. This is a poem about the spontaneity and romanticism that I never took and how everytime I think of that opportunity I never took it reminds me of my mortality slipping away.
