Love Like Ours.

Like the first love note, red flowers and ink initials and boxes unchecked, left to think 3rd grade delivery, while heart blown adult shaking in shoes long untied, difficult Like the first kiss, in the sand on the beach long brooded tenderness, passion increase Hands held like fingerprints with no repeat feeling for once like a puzzle complete Like the soft steps of bare feet as we wed while the sky sugar colored the sun into bed No nervousness here at the tip of the world Not a regret while I felt yet a girl Like the last moment you kissed me goodbye Off to work, off to your home in the sky Trailing behind you the string to my heart Like these first moments, again, when we part.
