Unbroken
Love ~~ PT III
I felt like I was
gently flying,
but with the bitter
taste of hemlock
still brushed upon
my lips.
Our names were being
whispered
on sighs throughout
the sobbing woods,
happiness found
for but a fleeting moment
before a spurned
and hateful fairy
cast our love upon
the winds.
An angry storm of
tragedy
that had me calling
out,
"My Prince of Hearts,
where art thou?"
Heaven's door
now a wall
of broken
tears.
"I am here my love,"
came your firm and
gentle voice.
"Reach out for me
and grasp
my trembling hand
so we
may spend eternity
together,
our hearts as one
at last."
I extend my hand
and feel your
warm fingertips
brush mine,
a feeling so divine.
My eyes fluttered
open and there you were,
my Prince of Passion,
the man who set
me free so that
upon my kiss
your fate was sealed
with
mine ~~ forever
more.
You wiped a tear
from my eye
and enwrapped me
in your embrace.
Oh lord, thank heaven
my sleep of dreams
this time will be
where angels soar.
I gazed up at your
handsome face
and whispered softly
against
your beating chest,
"I love you so."
Suddenly, before
he had a chance to answer,
I felt myself falling
backwards,
still desperately
holding on to him, afraid to let go,
screaming atop the
swirling winds,
"Dont release me
my love."
Propelled into darkness
and light, flashing broken
shadows spinning
past my crazed eyes,
we found ourselves
lying on firm ground,
completely encircled
in a massive, glowing bubble.
Shrills of agitated
fairies chanting,
"Double bubble,
toil and trouble,
break this spell
of poisoned kisses.
Grumble, mumble,
boil and stubble,
return to us our
Prince and Princess."
With a loud POP,
POP, POP the bubble burst,
spilling us at the
feet of Keriether who danced in glee.
A grinning Endorra
and Eelana, with great flourish,
stashed away their
magical dust of roses and ambergris.
My arms still tightly
holding onto my Prince
I smiled fondly
into his eyes,
"Is this real my
love, are we alive?"
"Yes, yes, yes pretty
Princess," jabbered Endorra,
"Do you think we
would let our Richard and Shandorra
be taken from us
by a fallen fairy?"
I smiled and turned
to face my Prince.
"Please take me
in your arms and never let me go.
My enchanted heart
is yours forever,
never to spend a
moment not thinking of you.
Let my kisses now
enrapture, let our hearts
be thus enamored,
let this spell of love
and passion be our
life's ambition."
Then he swept me
in his arms,
unafraid to kiss
me once again.
"I am yours from
now until forever,"
he proclaimed, for
all the world to hear.
"My love for you
will
never ever end."
