| 13 | | I wish I'd kissed you when I had the chance. | ||
| 14 | | Your face hovering there, so near to mine, | ||
| 15 | | your mouth pursed---what word was it you pronounced? | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | | When I think about you, [something in my pants][] | ||
| 18 | | tightens, and my thoughts run, and I realize | ||
| 19 | | I should've kissed you when I had the chance. | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | | I want that moment never to be past | ||
| 22 | | like Keats's lovers on the grecian urn: | ||
| 23 | | his mouth pursed, her figure turned to pronounce | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | | her hips in ways that are not feminist. | ||
| 26 | | But time strolls mildly on, not glancing at my | ||
| 27 | | wish to kiss you when I had the chance, | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | | whispered like a [beggar to a prince][] | ||
| 30 | | outside his palace: time looks up to the sky, | ||
| 31 | | purses his lips, and hears what I pronounce | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | | but pays it little mind. If he would just | ||
| 34 | | turn back, bend down, and follow my design, | ||
| 35 | | I would have kissed you when I had the chance, | ||
| 36 | | as your mouth pursed and you pronounced goodbye. | ||
