May I borrow this?
Maybe
I’m mistaken
but I imagine kisses
like butterfly punches
and temples shaped
for alter songs.
This sigh you offer -
discreet and glancing.
A shape you’ve burned,
an arc to be admired.
Maybe, just maybe
I am the one
who does not
steal.

I love this simile: “kisses like butterfly punches”
This is one of those pieces that leaves me thinking, “I wonder what he is talking about?”

The person accusing is not the thief, yet the title states otherwise.

Er…I think the speaker is accusing the other person of being worthy of a theif’s attention.

*grins knowingly*
(and, possibly, infuriatingly)

Maybe it
Makes sense
Because I have seen
Horses fly and
Cats grow from kittens.
This sigh you are offering –
A statement you made,
An arc that grew cold.
Maybe, just maybe,
I am the one
Who dares not steal.

hmmm..? it does say right there at the top that it is sbout “lust.”
The mystery is unfolding… but it is time for me to get ready to go to the dance…

*smiles crookedly*
Title changed!

Yeah, I think it’s a sexy poem. I missed the “lust” tag. He wants to kiss those lips, but maybe he can’t.
Agh! And now a title change.
