The Black kept gripping, even as she kept slipping out of its clutches.
Realizing she must have made a wrong turn somewhere, she sensed that she had traveled deeper into the catacombs.
But there was a dim light ahead where people were crowded and surging, and the sweetest, most intoxicatingly soul-ravaging music lured her to witness a dark knight and his entourage performing in impassioned glory.
From that moment, she was smitten by a force Hell could never even dream to compete for.
Love
“You do not have to impress me, but you do so nonetheless.
This makes me feel that you value me as worth your time and efforts.
And it endears your heart to mine, even more.
Thank you for lifting and gifting me, and for all of the good that you share with the world.”
“Are we aligned?”
“What is it that you are waiting for?”
Zoom…
What has only been temporary
Must transform into longevity
To be granted passage opening
Heaven’s gates to love’s paradise
Do not let the frenzy
Overpower your will
You have won my
Heart’s affections
Rest, recover, and
Steady your course
I am here waiting
Ready to embrace
Your soul’s desire to give
My love is yours in return
“I want no other…
I love you.”

(Jane Eyre A&E ending)
Your viscerals feed
Opening closed veins
To forgotten nutrients
As bleed from desire to
“I cannot see and hear everything clearly, but what I do comes through stunningly.
‘You’ve got me up in a frenzy’ – ‘ but not like before when I was empty.'”

(Sleep Token quotes)
“It’s so on.”
(Chuckles in the dark)
“Your serve, Darlin’.”
Don’t fade to always black
Reach for me instead
I will catch you
“The only bad baddy spinning eyes in the room…”

(Sleep Token reference)
“As you rocket far beyond the surface, I plummet as descend.
Oh, to be able to clasp hands to catch, stabilize, and help rebalance each other!”
Something that lurks
Waiting to take hold
Working advantage
That which is
Beyond control
“Once you have gained what you desire, do you know how to cherish and keep nurturing it?
These things are often not straightforward and require intuition, reassessments, and recallibrations to mutual benefit.
Evolution.”
“Go get ’em, Tiger!
Make it rain.”
“I hope that you saw the song that I wrote titled ‘No Other’ and the song that I posted following it that I have since removed.
They weren’t really for the world to see, but were meant to be between you and me.”
“If I’m out on the streets…
I won’t go into a shelter.
Believe me.”
It’s ok you held on for as long as you did
I would’ve – and did do – the same as you
“A demon to be fu**ed with!”
Sharp teeth and claws bared while roaring.

(Blasting back negative imfluences)
What am I becoming?
Vast universes inside
Pressing to stretch wide
Revealing hidden secrets
I can’t yet see nor have
The strength to confide
“I thought that the goal was to become centered in one’s body.
But I keep getting crowded out by pain and dysfunction.
Elders kept telling me that I have a higher calling – and I kept feeling like they were trying to bend me to their influences, no matter what agenda was being promoted.
Yet how are these current circumstances also not trying to force me into the spiritual realm?
I tell you – I won’t go there!
Not without my Protector.”
“I’m not as extreme where ny passions extend…I would love, cherish, and help heal – rather than try to hurt you.”
Do I wish that I loved you?
That’s a question to unpack
I do not need to wish when
Answer’s been self evident
Of course I do it was always you
Waiting for your eyes to see me
More to the point would be
Is it your wish to love me?
Don’t be a ship that passes in the night
Be the armada which guides me home
