California Nights
A moment. A love. A dream aloud. A kiss. A cry. The sun slowly drifting over the horizon, lashing it's last powerful tendrils across the sky, through the pink gauzy clouds and into the approaching midnight blues. Holding on as if it's dying wish is to give us, and this moment, just a little more time.
A song floats from the radio, riding the still warm breeze. "...make me feel so happy, I could die." the singer croons, the song becoming forever woven into the tapestry of my memories. I glimpse the subtle smile in her eyes and agree. I could die.
Looking at this image I can't help remember meeting her for the first time. The slight nervousness that neither of us were accustomed to feeling. Connecting through laughter, through art and sound, through touching and quiet moments. I was really not sure what to do with this new path as it burned brightly before me. She was unlike anyone I had ever met. Then it became as clear as the beating of my heart.. how could I resist the chance to fall for her? And down the path we went, giggling like idiots. Forging our story, a story told through moments such as this.
The beating of my heart thumping in time with another. How could I not feel the way I do for her?
This is an untouched shot, and to be honest, one I had no intention of uploading here. This was a meant only as a personal capture of a private moment. I was encouraged otherwise and so here we are. It is proof of a blessing, and if it were the only one I was destined to have with her, it would be one I'd remember fondly. And now it is enshrined here along with some feels. <3
I realize this post feels like something meant to be posted on Valentine's Day. But hey, we're almost there, right? And maybe this will inspire some to reach out to those they love (or like a bunch!), to grab them and hug them tight and express their feelings. Do it while you can. Life has a way of being fleeting sometimes and there is no regret quite like the ones that manifest around missing a chance to speak from the heart.
