Heavenly Imperfect
They
looked at each other... so intently, so loving. Their passion was
such a grandness, but their love was just not enough. They kept
looking ever so caring, ever so loving. They were smiling, a sad
smile. They wanted to stay together.
She remembered. She
remembered that first time they had met. That first time their gazes
had crossed, that first time she fell in love, for God knows he
didn´t fell instantly.
She remembered, how he looked at her, and
saved her. Saved her from her life and from her death. But he sure
remembered too.
¨What
are you?¨ She asked looking around, wanting to know if there was
anyone else to make her know she was not going insane...
He just
smiled at her.
They
kept their gaze, not wanting to leave. They wanted to stay together.
He smiled at her, just like he had done that first time they met,
except this time it contained so much love, he would have never
imagined he could give.
He remembered. He remembered all those
times he had had to save her, and all those times she had saved him,
not from life nor from death, for God knows he couldn´t, but from
cold. He remembered that first kiss. That time they had put all their
passion in it.
He
raised her hand, and ever so lightly touched her cheek, to which she
closed her eyes, been hypnotized by the feel of his skin, by the
touch of his heavenly silk hands.
It was everytime they touched,
it was as if their skins would go on fire. She could feel him in her
dreams. He could feel her in his thoughts.
Their lips came so
closely, she could feel his cold breath and he could feel her warm
skin. They had closed their eyes, not only from passion but not
wanting to see what could come from such a union. He brought her
closer, and embraced her with his arms and wings. She raised her
hands and put them so lightly on his shoulders. He reached lower, and
she tiptoed. Their lips were brushing, they could feel the static,
the sparks going on. They were hypnotized... under the state of love.
Their heart beats accelerated, their breathing became deeper and
quicker. Finally they gave in, and so sweetly pushed their lips
together, and hold on till forever, because for him forever was not
eternal.
Their
gaze were still on each other, they couldn´t look anywhere else, nor
they wanted to. They seemed so far apart. They both remembered every
little amount of time they had spend with each other, which was such
a short time, but for her it lasted a life time, and for him, it
lasted his mere excistance.
They both remembered, that time in
which he had professed his love for her. In which with simple words
he made up her world.
¨Heaven´s perfect.¨ He started. Not nervous, but anxious. ¨I know it is, it´s... undescribable... but perfect... It´s all love. You´re never sad, nor hungry... nothing less than perfect. But then there´s you. And I know you´re not perfect, but that makes you perfect, or even better. I wouldn´t change one thing from you.¨ He stopped looking at her. Glancing that not-earth worthy beauty of hers. ¨And I know, heaven´s not perfect, because it misses you. But I know that if I´d go back, it would be all perfect... but, what if I don´t want perfect? What if I want you? What if I think you´re perfect enough to shadow over heaven?¨
Their
stares kept going. It was no longer only emotional, it was mental,
physical... all. He reached his hand and grabbed hers, ever so
careful. And she let him take it. Feeling the electric vibes that
were send every second through her arm to her mind, to her heart with
each pore of his skin touching each pore of hers.
She remembered,
that time in which words weren´t needed to describe the love in the
atmosphere. That time at the roof, were both of them had spent the
most amazing night any human or angel would have. She remembered his
words though, those three words which still run through her mind,
which made her heart beat rise, and her lips quiver.
¨Heaven´s love. But love is heaven.¨ She answered to his confession, to which he smiled, knowing she was right.
She
squezeed his hand while holding it. Their stares continued glued to
each other. She squeezed it to announce him time was coming, and to
confirm him she would be alright, though deep inside she feared. But
he reassured her too. He raised his other hand, and so slightly
touched her face, her cheeks, her lips, and so lightly gave her a
peck, with her eyes closed from all the emotion. But his heart had
speeded off too.
He remembered, the one time, when in her room she
had asked him what it felt like. What it was to be him. That one time
she had asked him why they were so cold.
¨Not
cold.¨ He answered. ¨We just do not experience any human emotion.
We´re perfect.¨
He said with despise. He was so confused, he wasn´t sure how he was
experimenting all these feelings for her. Maybe it was
her. Maybe her soul and her heart were so big it invited him to
express emotions.
¨But...¨ She continued. ¨without pain...
there´s not compassion, no kindness. Isn´t that what makes us more
beautiful... doesn´t that make us... perfect?¨
He knew the answer to that, it was simple. They were beautful
creatures, they were after all made at God´s will. That was the
reason why God loved them so much, and forgave their sins and their
treasons. Mercy.
They
were closer now, with that peck he gave her. He was cupping her face
with both hands, and she was embracing him. One single tear escaped
her eyes, and traveled all around her cheek. She closed her eyes.
He
leaned in closer and kissed the spot the tear was while closing his
eyes too, and traced it all up to her her eye, were he turned and
kissed her lips. So lightly and sweetly.
They both opened their
eyes to let their gaze once again, so powerfully meet.
It was goodbye now. But they´d remember.
