Analysis of The kiss
I kissed her; kissed her
I kissed her so right.
Some people spoke among themselves
why did I kiss her; kiss her?
Who was she to me; to kiss,
And express my deep, deep love?
But I knew I have to do;
But I knew I am so right.
But I knew she was waiting for the same
And that was a last; last kiss.
