The Ancient Eternal

A century? A millennium? I do not know, but it happens........ And when it does, I shall appeal to the Wise Ones who may reward me for my patience and sacrifice and make you Immortal as I am, as you were meant to be.

And so I watch you my love, you work at night, and this time you fight against fires to save others. Already the curse evolves and changes as the steady rhythm of the Old Ways grow and strengthen. Tomorrow, your human body will perish in the very flames you seek to fight. But your soul is eternal and belongs only to me.

I stand behind you now my love, and as you turn, I see reflected in your eyes a high mountain plateau, where there is a cool lake and a deep dark forest and a forest nymph with green eyes and pale skin, turned to ivory in the moonlight. She spreads her thighs on a bed of soft velvet moss and smiles at you with passion, love and reverence, inviting you into her, to come back where you belong.

Approaching you, I know that my whisper has made you remember who you are. And as I kiss you and lead you into the deepest shadows, a far off hum... echoes and intensifies.....a heartbeat to an ancient pulse.....

You are mine..... my love... my soul.... you are mine.....
