CHAPTER TWO: Episode 1
It was in my deepest siesta I heard voices of feet walking towards me. When these voices finally came nearer to my side, they were deceptive pictures. My eyes unlocked. The more my try to recall the face in the water, the deeper forgetfulness govern. The face that brought me here was the last I saw. My partner I know never be the talking kind. He returned a look on the jasper. He rubbed.
"It is in your power to forgive me,
mate. I've got to put you down.
You deserve a satin but since the
grasses are green, you need a
greener leaf to make your bed."
He stretched toward a greener leaf and plucked. Inspiration paid visit. He applied no failure but took his pen and book closer. He cous barely tell why some of his days begin a count at the river side. Still, what brought him there was hidden but needed him to seek.
"If I fail to love you,
I am on loan to loneliness.
A second you leave my eyes is like
A kiss of goodbye is a gift to me.
They said it is too early for me to
Fall in love.
They said they wonder why I'm
Involved with you.
I heard voices said I made the
Greatest mistake of all to have chosen you,
But when it comes to loving you,
I don't wanna be the one who will
Come to you when the time is late,
When the space is filled,
When the woman you are is not the woman in me,
When your lips is filled with the
Taste of another,
And I struggle to convince you
To love me when the clock can't
Start walking from the time I fell
In love with you."
He adjusted closer to the water and dipped his foot. One more glance on the write up, he gave to the water. It travelled farther out if its direction. He had had critical relationships. The previous was worse. Maybe this would be worst this time but he had chosen to believe true love has lived out if existence. It went deep out of sight. He waited awhile. The truth is, he was unable to tell what still delayed him on that spot. To turn his back at the water was the only move he made. His eyes connected with the jasper.
"Smooth skin with sparkling light.
One more time I desire a touch
From me to you.
Not for the last time I want this
Meet with you.
Your light speaks of beauty like
A singer lacks no praises.
My hands hunger to feel you
nearer.
My words are disordered because
Beauty that set my feet here is not
Very near my lips to know what
The taste of love is."
"When she finally show up, how will I resemble in my age ----- have you any idea?"
Light flashed from the jasper.
"You heard that, uh?"
Weird sound from behind gained his attention. He turned with harsh face. His feeling shifted. A bird came for a drink. On the water he saw it float. Eyes stood still on the piece. The words were different from his words. He fetched it out. There the reading began.
"If I have nothing doing with my time,
I wouldn't have thought of spending my whole time with you.
It is love that keeps you by me.
It is nothing but love that keeps me by you.
It is love that call me to you.
It is love that knows us more than any can tell our story.
It is real love that knows who is real
That is why she put one aside and join another.
Much love I will never forget to give you.
Sweet love will not cease from my lips to keep you warm when times of cold strike.
Let me preach love now till the days I number as my age be gone.
You worth more than just a man. "
The bird was far gone before he emerged at the last word. He turned, just him sitting. On his feet he stood.
"Oh that I may see the beauty
Of the hand that sent me
Sweet words.
How pleasant will that be that I
Stand nearer to the lips of the one
My soul is called to not once but
forever, " he desired.
