Our First Kiss

Our first kiss was in a rose garden.

so powerful and raw. 

Unstoppable and steady like an ocean’s tide. 

Cleansing our shores of old debris and then washing us into water never seen before. 

The single greatest embarkment of my life.

Our union clasped us together with a sudden charge. 

Excess current sped through our hearts. 

Like some unbreakable magnet lay just under the soft and supple surface.  

Her lips bound me forcefully into her and made it impossible to retreat. 

How breathtaking it is that God knows exactly who to send you and when to do it. 

To balance your imperfections, challenge you, grow with you. 

Someone to provide what you do not have to provide yourself. 

It's amazing how perfectly God always knows.

God always knows.
