“Take It Slow” (Country Song)

By Athena Stairs, Valentine’s Day 2026

Well

She was a wide-eyed beauty
Lookin’ for adventure
She didn’t know
Who she could trust

So I told her to
Come here gently
Don’t ya let the fear win
I bet you got plenty of buck left in ya

‘Cause your lookin’ for a man
Ain’t been into danger
You don’t need to worry
‘Cause I ain’t in no hurry

We can get real cozy
Take it like we’re dozy
You know I like it when
You’re playin’ hard to get

And I know you need to be cautious
But darlin’ you’re lookin’ luscious

You aint seen nuthin’ at all yet
Come here close and I’ll tell you a secret

We could walk out that door
Promise you’ll want more
And then when we’re finished
We’ll start it all again

‘Cause this is
Oh my mama
Your lookin’ like a goddess

And one thing you’ll notice
Is baby I can take it real
Slow

Mmmm

Yeah

Oh babe
We’ll take it

Nice and
Slow

Mmmm

Mmmm

Baby
We can take it real
Slow

(Music continuing for a while, then fading into distance)

Male country vocal deep twang full of appreciation.

The Pulse Of Love

They were traveling together for the first time while it was unfolding, and a younger assistant showed her all of the lyrics written out, published in a journal’s paper.

And as she continued listening to it playing while she read how they were printed, she realized that each small grouping of words lasted for quite a few minutes of experience.

Therefore, the song was a very long one – longer, perhaps, than many before.

As their air car landed and she got out with her guy, she wrapped her arms around him from behind as he sat down breifly on a bench, then nuzzled her nose and face into the nape of his neck, breathing in his scent and glorying in the way his warmth and hair felt against her skin.

“It’s perfect, don’t you think?” she murmured as she kissed just below his ear, feeling the heat of his pulse quicken against her lips.

“A real love song should be long and stretch out in a kind of forever so that lovers can expand into and have their joys and hopes supported as they are mirrored by it.”

“Let’s Aspire” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, November 14, 2025

Oh secret smile shared with demure eyes
Angelic blessings can no longer disguise

Come and let me touch the Face of Love
Teeth like a cat’s voice smooth as a dove

Only a halo burning bright for pure Truth
Could survive Hell’s fire walls undeterred

Tranforming ash into heat’s molten desire
Wings of supernova stardust lift us higher

“Set Alight” (Song)

By Athena Stairs,  November 13, 2025

Take me to the alter where
We’ll worship on our knees

Our love will never fail as
Souls in paradise redeem

No one can tear apart destiny
Holding hands our lives unite

We’ll celebrate Fall’s rejoicing
As the season love takes flight

Nervous Beginnings

Will our inhibitions keep us stuck in a rut?
What right do they have to mess with us?

Is this what it means by leaping in faith?
But what if we’re frozen stiff at the gate?

How do we propel ourselves into momentum?
Does speaking in code assure of same intentions?

I know desire to kiss you coaxes temptation
But is your approval implied by arrival’s attestation?

If reached out my hand, would you offer yours, too?
If counted one to three, would we crash into

Each other, bonk heads, then laugh all jittery?
I’d like to be smooth, yet awkward is temporary

New Beginnings, Where Demons Tread

I Know, I Know

There’s only so much definition
Before we must just take a leap

Only so much deep discussion
Before two souls commit keep

But it is worth indulging
As we quiver biting nails

So that we calculate our bearings
Moving ship into water after shelf

There are stars to choose to guide by
Though others later share importance

Specific phrasings to convey meaning
So we understand language as lovers

Darling do not worry if I hesitate in a step
Just making sure we will be safe to benefit

This means so much to you and me
I want us to be found in translation
