This is...

This is the meeting of his lips to her face
This is the first kiss, the first burst of flavor, the bite of the fruit of knowledge when everything becomes so clear
This is the beginning of the love story, for every kiss was like the first
This is what we all should learn, to kiss and love with all our might until the very end, for we are not all fortunate enough to live in ignorance of when the end shall come
This is the beginning of her new life
This is the end of theirs
This is the first and last kiss
