G. The love that is expressed in a kiss on the lips: Torah Or p. 79b-80b
Kissing on the lips is one of the highest and greatest expressions of love between a husband and wife, and likewise in the service of G-d, the level of attachment to G-d referred to as Neshikin, or kissing, is the highest of levels that one can reach. The reason that kissing on the lips represents such powerful emotions of love is because it comes as a result of an inability to express the love in words due to the explosion of emotion. The emotion of love that one is feeling is too strong and intense to fit into the limitations of letters of speech, and can only be expressed through a kiss and specifically through kissing on the lips. Why? As through kissing on the lips one shares his breath with the breath of the other person and breath is the source of all the words of speech. This is referred to as an attachment of the soul, Isdavkusa Rucha Berucha.
