kissed by the sun

stronger than a heartbeat and longer than a tragedy. In this undeniable glare, the rarity is i am melting, for the first time to last its last a lifetime. I am attracting movements from superstitions and these missions of visions and dreams. Involved in decisions followed by the means to an end and all of the above that can never be seen. Is this connection from a dream, it is what it seems. Forgotten memories will be discarded and replaced with an energy that could power one million cities. Before it is, i dream of this before it is. Her lips the moment before a kiss, became my inevitable reason to existWithin this colliquil mist, leaving cupid thinking why. Who knew we could so easily be fused intrepid. Are we designed to melt once our current exceeds a secure strength. If i am to be the first or last to know, thos golden moments are now where promises go. And if you are ever whispered them, dont linger....
