Love's First Kiss

Guns were blazing
bombs were booming
In the distance
Was doom looming
And there I stood afraid to go
All I knew is I had to jump
The cliff was tall
The bottom unseen
My future was there
Down in that ravine
Afraid of results
But scared of death
I felt my body start to fall
As I took a long deep breath
I left the guns and bombs above
And drifted down, a falling dove
As I saw the barren plain
I knew my end and let eyes rain
But as the ground did close in
I felt a hand tilt up my chin
"I am your angel, forget your pain
You shan't fall on the barren plain"
And as I felt the love engulf me
A moment of silence exchanged between we
Newfound lovers our hearts did pour
Our love onto Earth's own floor
Down on the plain the flowers bloomed
And suddenly I didn't feel so doomed
And so I fell into the field of eternal bliss
Protected forever by love's first kiss
