First Impression

You first kissed me 
   on the 4th of July.
It was so perfect 
   under the lit up sky,
with the stars and the moon
   and the fireworks.

I remember everything that 
   followed in the next few seconds
after pulling away from that first kiss.

The booming sounded 
   in my ears
The light flashed
   in your eyes.

It was then that my heart
   and your soul
   first met.
