Love at First Bite--Mereva

 It is a cold February night. This wintry weather doesn’t prevent me from attending the street festival near my neighborhood. A cool breeze pierces my face as I peacefully stroll on the sidewalk. Walking alongside the crowd, I caught a glimpse of you amidst the bustling throng. Your magnificence and beauty shone with the light of the vendor fixated on your entire existence. It was as if God is beckoning me to behold upon this holy entity. The moment I laid my eyes on you, everything around me seems nonexistent. There were others just like you, but you are the one who caught all of my attention with your alluring elegance. You carried with you an aura full of enticement and lust. Being a considerable distance away from you, you were shrouded by fog and steam. To get a closer look at your exquisite existence, I began walking towards you and pushing past the crowd, easily ignoring their presence. I had one goal in mind and that was to get closer to you and meet you. As I soon reached the booth where you stood, I culminated feelings of nervousness due to being so close to you; however, this radiant light that we shared, assuaged my fears. The light brings me closer to you, spiritually and physically. This vendor light made it seem like we are the only ones in the entire festival. Back to my senses, I showed courtesy to the vendor and paid my respects and offering to him, even though my mind was set on you. I sat down with you right in front of me and I began to admire your presence. Your beauty is unmatched by others and you are special to me. Being impatient, I then picked you up and consumed your chewy noodles. Engulfing your soup gave a burst of flavor and filled me with warmth within this cold weather. My longing for this ramen is finally fulfilled. I came to this street festival in hopes of finding you, and now my love is satiated.
