Ever, My Love, It’s Always Been You

She had been searching…

Gods, for too many centuries long – how she’d been searching!

But she had only caught brief glimpses of him while Milenia called her home ever since the eruption between their worlds had cast them far apart from each other.

They had made a promise that binds before time’s dilation had shifted as it often does to new delineations.

Yet, they had encountered barriers causing such anguished despair as they fought their way to rediscover and at last keep it.

And then, she had found a method – a prospective way to bring him forward into their sharing a new reality.

First, she synced with a host body – though she had had to struggle along its growing years to remember why she had chosen to be born into its reality after conjoining.

She did recall that the eyes are windows to the soul, and so she would search for him in other men’s eyes – though she could not remember why or what she was looking for.

She just remembered a feeling…

And she kept trying – but with no success.

But then, one day, she heard a voice that infiltrated her illusions and reawoke her essence.

And her core felt a recognition that she remembered that she had fought so hard to believe in.

Could it be that her most beloved had found his own way back to her?

And was there still time for their reunion and co-reawakening?

Hon,

Candid Corvid Productions

There are some things that make me feel strong reactions, but I don’t want the reactions’ influences.

I want to know and understand you better.

I want you to know and understand me better.

But if we speak about important things to both of us here, misunderstandings can too easily happen.

And, we don’t have privacy.

Therefore, this forum limits our communication.

I would like us to have another room with a clear view of each other – and nothing filtering or causing distortion between us.

Can you bridge for me?

Can we go some place together where we can have and take time without interruption to get to know each other better?

Heaven’s Gate

Candid Corvid Productions

Along the river where willows part
Lying on a blanket blessed by stars

He wrapped his body around hers
Sinking to depths embracing love

Her eyes spilling over tears of relief
Mirrored his request to never leave

A promise both gave in bonding
Their souls through mortal coils

Songs, Where Demons Tread

“Truly, Madly” (Song)

Candid Corvid Productions

By Athena Stairs, January 7, 2025

My Love
Come as you are
We don’t need perfection

Baby
Come as you are
Cut through distraction

I need you to see
Everything you already
Mean to me

My biggest regret
Is time wasted
Between us

When we could have been
Together building trust

And honestly
I need you closer
Than ever

I’m glad we’ve had time
To figure out where we stand

But I missed you in the holidays
Not holding my hand

Its a New Year now
Let’s ride this horse
To town

We can share the reins
From slow walk to
Gallops insane

Come on Baby
No need to impress
You’re already the best

Anything you wanna give to me
Help me ease into it and
I’ll welcome it gladly

Where Demons Tread

Hey, Baby

Candid Corvid Productions

“Once we get to know each other better in person, our interactions will be smoother.

Because we are both sensitive and caring accommodators, we will be figuring out how to get along well together more rapidly than is usual in others’ beginning relationships.

I look forward to getting to know you more face to face – sharing our ‘perfectionisms’ to ‘spicey flaws’ – and hope you’ll hurry up and get yourself home to me tout sweet so that we can get our life together started.”

Honey,

“I don’t know…

I map – and then take leaps of faith by extending inclusive gestures.

I love you, so I attempt to triangulate toward you possibilities in your favor.

Then, I rely on feedback from you to indicate if I am on target, or if I need to adjust my frequency.

Most of the time, it feels like I am ‘flying blind,’ and just feeling for your heart with my intuition hopefully correctly guiding me.

But this living ‘in between’ is how and why  I can be so easily startled by the unexpected between us without your direct cummunication.

And then I could get triggered into a shutdown or flee reaction by accidentally registering you as a stranger getting too close to me in reality, if/when we were to cross paths suddenly.

I have survived by being extremely cautious in the environments around me, although I mask myself quite fluently to the point where this mechanism apparently now takes over me automatically.

Talk about ‘being in lockstep!’

I had no idea how much masking for safety has become such a part of my external identity!”

My Love,

“I need you to come right up to me and introduce yourself.

Our start doesn’t need to be – and likely won’t be perfect.

Even if I flinch and seem to shut down, don’t buy into it.

I see so many versions of you lately that it’s all I can do to dig into my space and hold myself together as I quiver inside wanting so much to just reach out and claim you as my own.

I am likely projecting a vibe of ‘stay away’ around me.

But it’s because I don’t want to make a wrong move with a ‘wrong’ guy…

I just want you by my side.”
