April's Miracle: Something New

I felt his arm casually snake its way across my waist
His breathing slowed to an unsteady rhythm
I could feel the tension uncoiling through his body
The anticipation building for what he was about to do
A years worth of pent up longing
Of doubts and uncertainty, hesitation and nerves
Slowly he brought his face towards mine
His eyes held my gaze and we both stood there swaying
The world fell away and the room began to spin
His breath was a whisper upon my face
As his lips touched mine I felt a sharp jolt
Tingling current as his warm kiss drew the breath out of me
Though it lasted 5 seconds, it felt like a year
A precious gift, this first kiss
