Yesterday I kissed a boy

It was quick, it was brief, it was thoughtless

I never would have let my guards down

Never,

But this boy, he didn’t even ask for my permission, like a gentleman should

He just went ahead and did it anyway

I had built strong walls all around me

Walls that none could penetrate or so I thought

Strong and tall and defensive walls

But it all broke down yesterday,

Not one pebble was left over another

It was in the busy subway

He brushed passed quickly

And in that brief moment of time

Fleeting and thoughtless

My soul kissed a boy who walked away just in time

Yesterday I kissed a boy

And today the thought still lingers

Tomorrow I hope to the highest heavens not to remember

This boy who had his soul kiss mine.
