I Am Dating Again

"Do you want to kiss me?"... Last October I wrote about an event that happened May of 1995. It can be read at: May 1995 Pensacola Beach (http://www.experienceproject.com/stories/Have-A-Broken-Heart/2634785) Today I went to lunch with a really special lady. It was our second date together. We ate at a restaurant on Staten Island. We drank sangria. The meal was excellent. We sat outside on the patio overlooking the water, right across from Bayonne. And then we went for a walk at a nearby park. We walked further and stopped to look at a bulletin board. And we found ourselves face to face. She smiled. I took off my sunglasses. And I found myself at a loss for words.
She said, "What is it?"
I didn't know what to say. So I said, "Uhh... Nothing?"
She playfully asked, "Do you want to kiss me?"
I could barely say, "Yes."
And we kissed. Oh, it was incredible. Mere words cannot describe how it felt to kiss her. I felt tingly all over. Hadn't felt like this in a long time. As she pulled the cord to restart the Briggs & Stratton love engine of my soul, the dust burned off after years of dis-use, pumping something into the void that only she can fill. And my flywheel was turning. Faster and faster. Up to full throttle. Fueled by hope -- that same hope that I wrote about last October. Again that elusive dove has descended upon me.

The restaurant filled my hunger. And then she filled my heart.
