There was one night…it was pounding rain in fat bullets from the sky. We ran quickly in the house, but still we were drenched! Tiny Jake was soaking wet and shivering. Grabbing a towel, I wrapped him up snuggly and tight like an infant swaddled. And you…. You…. I could see directly into your heart through the look in your eyes. It was big and warm, vibrantly green and had rays of hope shooting from it like a starburst. So bright and full, it shimmered all the way through your eyes, dusting me with a mist of sparkling light as you watched me drying Jake.
I could have sworn at that moment that love was not merely an intangible emotion or some silly concept for romance novels and love songs, but solid and as truly touchable as a soft, furry, smiling puppy… shivering and wet from the driving rain.
Maybe that is why I still ache for you every time it rains…
this is beautiful =)
