Promises, Promises

Excerpt from "What to do until love finds you" by Michelle Mckinney Hammond

"How little we see when we're close up; how revealing a step back can be. Don't ever lose sight of one of the most pround promises of GOD - 'All things work together for good to those who love GOD, to those who are called according to HIS purpose.' (Romans 8:28)"

"Kisses aren't promises, they carry no warranties guaranteeing a lifetime of service or love...they are but the hunger of two hearts for the moment, the longing to touch beneath the surface...to sample the very essence of one's soul.

...to taste, to explore, to experience one's breath and perhaps draw life from it...gently probing, pressing past outward appearances and reservations connecting...prying...nudging each other's consciences and desires into awakening, challenging one another's inhibitions in a gentle game of truth or dare

...kissing...touching...leaving a portion of one's inner self behind, sometimes meaning to return to the well for yet another drink, sometimes not...for the cord has been broken only the sweet aroma of two spirits once intertwined remains to dissipate into unspoken memories and feelings never vocalized

...no promises made...no promises kept...after all, kisses never have been and never will be promises..."
