PART ONE
From the first time I noticed him, something about him caught my attention.
His voice captivated me, and his emotive words struck chords deep within.
Interactions were kept at bay, however, while apparently false perceptions presented as reality.
But that first time we messaged all night, oh how I felt the twinge of disappointment having to say goodbye.
The next time was too much to bear, so I ripped the Band-Aid off, inquiring about the wall I perceived stood in our way.
Inexplicable relief.
With the air cleared and truth divulged, a flood of hot emotions washed over me as I finally allowed myself to succumb...
That night we blasted through the ice with an explosion of atomic proportions.
In the wake of the aftermath once the dust settled, it was quite clear - we melded well together into something beautiful.
Like Hydrogen and Oxygen, we became one fluid body of water -
A vast ocean with profound depths and sweeping tides of emotion.
Both nothing and everything made sense.
But it felt like the Gods had answered my prayers -
He was everything I ever wished for.
