That First Kiss, Happy Valentine’s Day! February 14, 2009
You know, I have had a few relationships in my life. (Yeah I know, pretty shocking right?!) And looking back at all the chaos that a relationship can bring, I really didn’t care what problems I might have had with that person, I still found every moment with them to be something very extraordinary. I know what kind of person I can be when I am with someone that I love.
It all began with a look. Then a smile. Then a slight touch of the hand. Then a kiss. The kiss of relief, that kiss of electricity that brings our souls together. A Kiss that leaves any man senseless, numb and weak in the shoulders. Since that day, a man can never be the same, nothing he does; from that first day he saw her will ever matter more. All life has become a blissful confusion and filled with a silent panic. Because the love of a woman has changed how men live and act. No one thing has ever made men more insecure about himself, feel less significant and still think he is somewhat important.
It is a strong power, which women hold over men. A very strange and dangerous power, which few women realize they possess. But it is there, lingering over the minds and hearts of all us small meaningless creatures called men. But as men, there is little we can do to overpower this spell that has been cast upon us, because it is our foolish and weak hearts that bring the downfall of our own desire. All we must do is remember who we are with, who we love and above all else, just look into their eyes. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the power of love will conquer the deepest of pains. That eternal flame that hides in the hearts of all men is never fully extinguished. That small piece of hope keeps it alive. Hope that love will always be there.
Hope falls beyond our craving for mire compatibility with a woman in this world. It is the hope and knowledge that the ones we love will be there in the morning when we wake up. Hope in knowing that smell of her perfume that clings to the bed sheets will be there. Eager for that first smile, when she wakes up, and says, “good morning.” To see your own reflection in her eyes as you pour her a cup of coffee. To feel the butterflies all over again when she comes out of wearing that outfit she knows you like the best. There are loves that grow better with age, much like the wine that you share with her. There are loves that make you wish the ocean was always near, just to remember how the wind blew her hair into your face.
So ill end with this; for those of you who are lucky enough to have someone to hug and pour a cup of coffee today, those of you who can wake up and see their own personal happiness every day, always remember that first look, that first touch and never forget that first kiss. Happy Valentine’s Day!
