When rain falls down in multitudes, he is beautiful.
When he kisses her, it is unadulterated bliss.
When kissed on the nape of her neck, chills run down her spine.
When the chills have reached there destiny, they simply recrudesce.
When returned to their natural state, she is numb with euphoric harmonies within her bosom.
When the harmonies regress and the chills are gone, she wakes up to find her sheets tattered and worn with a sense of vexation.
Is it another dream, dreamt yet again?
Her interest is piqued, for now, only a few more hours until she will find her ignis fatuus again....
But awaken by warmth in her blood, she feels him. He is no longer the stranger in the night that abandons her like before.
The warmth of his hand brings light into her eyes. He sees her. He loves her. He kisses her and the reality presents itself with grace, kindness, peace, compassion, sincerity, and a multitude of benevolences.
No more furtiveness or elusive disappointments does she know.
His pursuit is anything but false, tainted by nothing. He loves her. He rescues her from a impasse she had traveled down far too long.
With everything given to him, HE LOVES HER.
She loves him.
She is awake.
"6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient. 7Therefore do not be partners with them. 8For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10and find out what pleases the Lord. 11Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, 14for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: "Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
15Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. 18Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. 19Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, 20always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. "
