Baptism

by @theamarysdejai

What I mean to say is that I heard the angels weep when I first saw you smile. I imagined that there was an invisible string wrapped around my heart and tied to the corners of your mouth. When you smirked, my heart skipped a beat. Before that, your lips were parted, your mouth was open ever so slightly, and I have never ached so badly to kiss someone. I thought about how they would feel under the touch of my fingertips. Your eyes--the color of the soil of the earth. I've dreamt of being buried in both. So it goes--God created everything, and everything he created was good. And you are the firmament; you are the most heavenly, wondrous thing.
