Ginger Bliss

He looked at her with an intensity so profound it incapsulated her soul and made time stand still.

Her eyes began to tear up as she looked up at him, afraid to let him see her vulnerable side, she quickly looked down. But he wouldn’t dare let her release from his intoxicating gaze. He lightly grasped her chin up towards his face and slowly wiped every single tear that had rolled onto her plump crimson cheeks, then proceeded to slowly kiss her eyes, as they closed in response to each lingering press of his loving lips, working his way towards her nose and then to her beautiful ruby red lips. She was so afraid to lean into him with such desirable intensity, to kiss him back would release her inner emotions and bring forth her weakened soul. But her walls began to slowly crumble as he took her into his arms, holding and never letting go, as he engaged her into a deep passionate kiss, one that seemed to last into the depths of eternity. He whispered time and time again for her to not be afraid but as much as she wanted to believe him her heart was still fragile and she was in fact quite fearful of it being shattered once more. But she had to admit that he was unlike any man she has ever met before. In fact he seemed spiritual in essence. As if God made him just for her. She felt at ease, cherished, and loved for the first in her entire life. What she once thought had been love had only been a mere facade. She was never one of those type to believe in love at first site. But she felt his profound love from day one. As if they were old souls reuniting from a distant past. Soul mates came to her mind immediately and she was not alone in her thinking for her new knight in shining armor felt the same. There was no explanation for their immediate magnetic attraction towards one another. Besides their propensity to share the same fondness of one another’s attractive attributes and their mutual fantasy of a pleasurable future full of intense, almost magical love and ethereal experiences.

She fell in love with his humor. His ginger beard. His lips that kissed her and took her into other far off dimensions but mostly it was his eager hunger towards protecting her and leading her into his inner being as one. And although new into their relationship he felt at ease and with the most of confidence that she was the one. And that one day she would share his last name. Because he couldn’t imagine anyone else. He had enough heartbreak to last a life time and although he would always have feelings towards those in his past, he realized, this girl with the raven locks, emerald eyes and heart of gold would be his forever girl, his person. And he did not question for one second this longing to have her, always by his side. There was no mistaking that something or someone had a bigger hand in their fate.

Their being brought together was fairytale like. In that a thousand life times had past before meeting one another and the day had finally arrived for their worlds collided with the intensity of a thousand horses, electrifying, and blind siding them both. Each afraid in their own right but willing to take a chance on love once more because this time there was a decadent sense of delicious comfort that both could not in fact deny, something they were missing with former lovers and they both knew from that day forward that they would be inseparable. They knew it would not necessarily always be easy. They knew they both had traveled through glass, stone, fire and hell to finally come to this point in their lives. Carrying the weight of the world, deep pain, burdens, losses, betrayal, dark sleepless nights and broken hearts. But despite their hardships and hard knocks they both knew they would be able to fight through any storms that might come their way. The good. The bad. All of life and it’s various pleasures and displeasures. They knew that any battle they faced would be done in love together. And that they would always and forever be right by one another’s sides unconditionally. Some would call them fools for rushing in at such an extraordinary speed. But they both knew their new love was exceptional, unclassifiable and quite remarkable. They held onto one another with the most endearing love, a love they both could have never fathomed until their hearts engaged in this life time and into eternal bliss from that moment and on.
