Do You Dare?

I have a task for you, If you except there will no Turing back, You must cut my heart my out, Please hasten time is not on our side, pain is only in the mind, Once my heart is out let the blood nourish the soil until there is no more, Once life has escaped my body, pick me up and you will carry me to the farther, The journey will be long, First we must find Parvati and she will show us the way through the immortal cave, Once we are out, You will have to run through the mystical forest for the Dryads will not welcome us, Once you are almost there my body will begin to grow heavy, Please do put me down, you body will grow tired and will ache with pain, your tears will scream to the ground, thorns will pierce your feet and they will bleed mercilessly, once you become lost in the lybrith you will finally hear the music, follow it and you will know your way, once you find the forgotten river, lay my body onto the water ,leave and do not look back, If you decide to come back body will be gone and my soul released,

Amazingly beautiful with the wonderful expressions, 'pain is only in the mind, 'Once my heart is out let the blood nourish the soil until there is no more’. The mention of Parvati indicates that that you have read Hindu mythology also. It is a pleasure to know that you are so well versed in other beliefs and religions as well. I have placed a new Kawaali hope you would enjoy it. Love and best wishes always....Jamecia Buggs '
