Kiss It Away - meaning Summary
Trying to Kiss Away Pain
The poem presents a speaker who tries to banish sorrow and coldness by metaphorically "kissing away" shadows, hurt, and bad memories.

The tone mixes hope and resignation, portraying yearning for brighter days alongside an awareness that simple gestures may not heal deeper wounds.
