#loveandfaith
A kiss in the dark; no theology could train the lips to speak the full scope of love — what faith teaches, touch unlearns. For a man in the weeds — _tangled_, unseen — is still something that grows, stretching toward light he may never reach. Still beauty never promised to be impressive. Ready to fall; not for love, but from the weight of being myself —this awkward custody of flesh and thought. It's truly a case argued by the mind, and tried by the heart. Walls of a lung breathing in and out, taking in their words, their dreams, their worth — as if loving meant learning to breathe through someone else’s lungs. But we may never know how far a love may go; it’s always a shot in the dark — blind in faith, eyes closed in trust, when lips meet and silence speaks for us. Only after they part does the night exhale the truth: was it worth the shot — or just the echo of our wanting?
