“Years from now, I will say that tonight was the night I knew she was the girl I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. This is about more than her body, her tanned skin, her perfect mouth. I am in love with her blood, with her smell, with intangible things that I will her hold: her laugh, her anger, her soul. She kisses me, and she has a thousand reasons to be upset with me, but tonight, she is not upset. She just keeps saying, 'I love you, I love you, I love you, in this life, and the next and the last.”

a few Days
before seeing
you – You are
too momentous.
But remember
it is idolatry,
not indifference.”
