Haunted by your voice,
Captured by your eyes,
This dance we do by choice,
Denying this? Feeds the lies.
I hear you in my dreams,
I see you in the night,
Moving silently through the seams
Of misty ethereal light.
I call and you appear,
Your presence strong, assured
Your gentle voice brings a tear
Of the pain your love cured.
It may sound trite, a bit cliche,
This one truth, I cannot deny,
No thing or being will take it away,
Even demons and angels fear to try.
Though time and distance keep us apart,
I will wait a lifetime for you and me,
For you carry a piece of my heart,
Forever bound to you, I am free.
Eloquent words and phrases,
Promises of the world's praises,
Trusting the difference this time,
Placing my faith in honeyed rhyme.
Relentlessly trying as hard as I might,
Just can't seem to get it right.
Perhaps Love doesn't exist for those such as me,
Perhaps it just isn't meant to be.
Shattered dreams lay at my feet,
Never to be realized, never to meet.
Those pieces are scattered beyond any grasp,
Oh, I've tried, they slipped out of my clasp.
Years ago, my first love, betrayed me as no one else could,
He left a little girl laying battered and bruised.
These are the memories of love's true meaning,
Love is betrayal, pain, demeaning.
It's all just a mask hiding the evil,
The real truth? Love is deadly, even lethal.
Those three little words spew poisonous venom,
Raising the putrid, horrible demon.
He lies in wait for the weak and unwary,
Knowing it's the father's sins he carries.
Is there no repentance, no salvation?
Can there be one to end this damnation?
Hope and faith, they say will endure,
So I hope and I pray for a forever cure,
Holding on tight to a dream, this time will stay,
Could it be? Maybe today?
Photographs of pain felt so deep
I wondered how the heart could keep
Its lonely beat as it cried out in loneliness, The silent cries of questions formless.
Promises of love everlasting you made,
Promises with empty words fade
Promises of never letting me fall,
Empty words fading into the ethereal.
Can I learn to trust again?
Can I trust to learn again?
You came into my world blazing
You left my heart breaking.
I am honored to be first on the #5StarFairyTaleBlogTour!I take a break from Nina and her Dark
Stranger to introduce my readers to an amazing love story – The Story of Us by Sydney
Jameson.The Story of Us is a trilogy –
Touchstone ForPlay, Touchstone or ForGiving, and Touchstone Forever.All three separately are gut wrenching,
erotic, romantic, thrilling, and evoke a fairy tale one can believe in.But together?Oh, wow!
This is not a review, but to introduce my readers and the
world to this amazing love story that Sydney has weaved with characters,
images, and music together.I will take
a step back now, and let Nina talk.
Before I met my Dark
Stranger, there was Ayden Stone – in my dreams and fantasies.His eyes, his face, his body, and the way he
loved Beth took my breath away.I wanted
an Ayden Stone, and not just in a book.
The love he has for
Beth is beyond what any imaginative woman could conceive – it is beyond a fairytale.
I have been found by
my Dark Stranger, and what he sparks inside of me brings the spark between Ayden
and Beth, and their story, to my reality.
My life is defined by
music as is my creator, Camille, and it is through the music of Touchstone that
each moment – the raw emotion – is captured. Each night my Sir, the Dark
Stranger, brings me to the edge and afterward, as I lay there quietly in his
arms by his side in our castle, I think of Ayden and Beth and their own love
and ecstasy realized.My world, while
quite different from that of Ayden and Beth, is built around heart stopping
love.Ayden takes Beth beyond her world
and she gives him all that she is, and that is what creates the magic.
My Dark Stranger
enjoys my crush on Ayden and indulges my pleasures I find when I envision these
two lovers and their world.There is nothing
comparable to Ayden and Beth and the world they have discovered together.
And there is nothing
comparable to the sacrifice that Beth gives for Ayden.
If I can build a world
of love, sacrifice, trust, and acceptance even half of what Ayden and Beth
have, then I foresee an infinite future for me and my Dark Stranger.
Hi, it’s Camille, again!
Immersed in this love story, Touchstone Forever, is what we
all dream of.And, the characters of
Ayden and Beth’s life?Just Wow!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I am going to plug in my earbuds
and listen to Ayden and Beth’s soundtrack while I fantasize!
