Sunshine

It happened when I was giving up on people, right when I decided that I was going to close my heart again and love no one but myself. It happened on a beautiful day when the sun was hitting high and highlighted the difference of our skin colour -black and white, like dark chocolate and milk. And we collided, shook in the same vortex of that warm sunshine. At first, I thought you were the nth date of my life that would just pass by on my skin like water flows, easily as that. But I was wrong. It didn't take me long to understand that a ray of sunshine hit me right at the centre of my heart. And I knew it wasn't going to last because clouds (or even so-called life timing, always so punctual....) were approaching. I just hoped some winds could delay them and let us have some more time together. One week was enough to get used to your moves, your expressions, your jokes (always trying to tease me pretending I wasn't aware of it :P ), your smell and the sound of your voice... Oh, now I know the sound of a ray of sunshine and I will always feel it on my skin whenever it comes out :) A bittersweet vortex of emotions, our bodies touching for the first time on prohibited lands, the insecurity of feeling confident with something new and the curiosity of reaching out feelings buried in the soul for such a long time...I feared nothing with you, we were balanced like the yin and the yang - opposite but complementary. There are some people you take years before you get used to be at your comfort with, and some others it just takes the time of a sunshine ray to come out from the clouds. You were one of these.  I promised myself I would not fall in love with a person Ive only met for one week, but how can you resist a warm and moving sunshine? :)  Maybe you know it already, but until that sunshine will come again, I will miss you <3
