that night

Just me and him sitting on the cold metal bleachers

Watching the dark crisp night sky light up with vibrant colors.

His arms were around me

Keeping me warm against the icy breeze.

Our eyes quickly gazing at each other for a split second

A split second filled with love, excitement, and joy

And as I leaned my head on his warm hard chest

Everything went still

All the laughter’s of the children became mute

All of the exploding colors in the sky became invisible

All I could hear was his heartbeat

All I could feel was him breathing

Syncing his breath into mine

Breathing just so our bodies would become one

Our life sweeping into us and leaving for a moment

We were inseparable

Feeling his body next to mine

How there was no space between us

It sent a rush of a feeling I cannot describe

A feeling that was coursing through my veins with so much energy

It was as though my body was on fire but no pain was being felt

He looked down on me

His warm eyes molding into mine

Trying to read my face it was as though he was looking right through me

The only thing he couldn’t see though was my heart

My heart was tucked away waiting for the right time to come out

Looking to see if it was the right time

He leaned a little closer

Just an inch closer so our noses we barely touching

He closed his eyes

And at that same moment I felt his soft lips press against mine

It was a couple of seconds before I finally caught up to reality

and realized what was happening

My body started to react

My hands slowly moved up his chest to his face

Holding him so he won’t let go

He was holding me around my waist

As my hands started to grab his hair

Pulling him down to my height

Keeping him captive in my moment

Our lips together, such a complete hold. I closed my eyes and I felt his soul

This was our first kiss.

And as we left our bodies

Our souls intertwined with each other

We were flying

And as it ended

He flashed my favorite smile

The smile that touched his eyes and made them sparkle

It was just a couple of seconds

But it felt like it lasted forever

All of my emotions came and left

It was just a simple kiss

But it was everything I wished for

And as he walked me home

Our arms locked around each other

I thought about that night

And I knew it would stay with me forever
