Like It Once Was

I want it to be as if it were the very first time. As if love was still a mystery. Like adolescents who marvel at the wonder of it all. This taboo, grown up thing

I want it to be like it was then- beautiful and brand new. A time to explore, to discover, this thing called: love.

I want it to be as it was when our bodies were young and we still maintained a certain innocence and naivety. A time when heaven met earth during those few minutes or hours together. When our eyes were still shiny and not tired and careworn.

I want it to be like a tornado. While in the throes of our love the world ceased to exist. Where we created and got lost in the makings of our own whirlwind.

I want it to be like the very first time you said to me – “Ti amo.” That first tug at my heart.

I want it to be so many things…
