Too cold. For April. But we took a walk because we’re just young and in love, starving for time together.
The ice and snow beat us in the face, clinging to our eyelashes, interrupting our smiles with spits and sputters.
It was cold, too cold. But we held each other close, a fire between our hearts.
Then we went to the gazebo where we simply spoke beautiful words to one another, just us. Our arms were wrapped around one another, clinging like we would never hold each other again.
I told you something, admitted even. It hit me hard, I almost cried. That’s when you spoke sweetly to me, hugged me slightly tighter, and kissed me ever so gently.
