Kisses in the Mirror

I see I see

What I haven’t seen for such a long time

I dreamed I dreamed

Of someone by my side

To have 20 fingers instead of ten

To kick the world with four feet

Beat the hell out of all the insecurities

To jump, skip hand in hand

Rolling over grass

Knowing that the present is the promised land

Surfing clouds

And sailing dreams

Injecting our veins with this momentarily bliss

And the best

To have

Four lips, legs, arms, hands, eyes, nipples, bum cheeks

And two tongues, noses 

And two of our saintly private bits

And all of that

All together

Kiss kiss kiss

On a daily base

Celebrating the feast

Which life is

Most of the time

When we fly even without having taken off

I dreamed and dreamed

And I still dream

Yet now when I look into the mirror

And see clearly what I see

I feel blessed and a heavenly bliss

I kiss the tips of my fingers

All ten of them

I caress my hands, my cheeks, my eyelids and even my nose wings

And wink to the reflection that I see

Kiss kiss kiss

Myself wherever my lips can reach

And I remember the story my mum once told me

Of how given birth was such a pain

That she just wanted them to take me away

 Without even having a glimpse

Yet when arriving at home

Her hearth filled with affection and delight

And she kissed kissed  kissed

This petite creature who would become me

All over it little tiny body

As she realized

A new life had born

And she wasn’t no longer alone

And here I stand eye to eye with myself

It’s not the first time

But it has been a while

Or honestly said a bit more than that

And in a glimpse

It has dawned upon me

That a rebirth has taken place

Right in front of and in me

I have myself

Full and complete

And I kiss, kiss, kiss

My self all over this now full-grown body

And I have peace

With kicking the world only with two feet
