Kiss
 
It was like falling into a deep pool of water without being able to estimate how deep it really was. Slowly I was dragged under the surface, the pressure building up as I sunk further and further down into absolute blackness, the surface growing in distance from me. Desperately I wanted to break free but somehow breaking free would be even worst than if I drowned in this absolute tingling of all my limbs, the heat that seemed to surround me even as I went down further into the icy depths.
 
When we finally did break apart I hardly knew where I was, gasping for the blessed air which I had taken advantage of so long ago. He gazed down at me with violet eyes so trusting, understanding and loving I could hardly take it. His grin shamed the sun and I tried to remember what I had been stumbling to argue with him about in the first place. Finally, after a few aching moments of simply breathing hard and staring each other down I whispered, “You could have just asked...”
 
He is just as loving today, nearly 10 years later, as he was that night so long ago when he showed me what love could truly be, showed me that the world was not full of the cold harsh truth of reality and that there could be peace and tranquility as long as I allowed it.
 
But what is the most remarkable is that he showed it all with just one kiss.
