Jericho's Prayer Letter Fire Ceremony Offering
There is a call deep on high
It whispers in the darkness and constantly cries
It speaks of divided parts entangled but still standing whole
An unconquerable timeless love forever aflame between two now lonely souls
I was once yours it whispered and you were always mine
Simultaneously, we might be separated by the great veil, but we’ll still stand together as one
Watching the crestfallen stars until the fall of time
For together we are indivisible by death and all that remains
For we two carry our golden chains even though its burdens may cause temporary pain
We are but just lonesome wanderers awaiting reunion
But one day we shall again be as one
You’ll just have to be patient and wait until my time is run
Such longing flows through my veins
The one I still miss who could no longer remain
It’s but a holy need I really could not casually dismiss as your soft caresses I still really just miss
I can only but look forward to a new tomorrow when we shall once again meet in a new Summerland
Devoid of pain, cancer, or sorrow
To be reunited in halls of immeasurable secrets
Where we shall no longer grow old and all our love shall be reborn and surrounded by lights of shimmering silver and gold
I visited a medium in the fall of the last Full moon
And Shirley said
My other half still waits in the dark
She stands lonely too with a broken heart that still pines
So Julia
This is my message for you
One day, beyond the mists of time in a new place filled with tranquilly for all to behold.
All our stories and adventures shall be retold
For ours is a love which shall still grow as we are inescapable souls
Irredeemable, we may still be
Full of mortal faults and mistakes, but blessed be by the lights of Goddess Albina
Beyond the Great Wormwood Star
Unconquerable two souls
Will once again
Walk as one
