Sacred Beloved In Collaboration With Silent One

Every night I close my eyes, loneliness suffocates my soul. I rapidly escape through a portal of dreams, where we once met with a passionate embrace. In your arms I felt alive, but dreams fade away like stars afraid of dawn. Loneliness returns with its gloomy silence, yet again, I am absorbed in cloudy days. I remain alone, intoxicated in your thoughts, But I yearn to be found, like an undiscovered treasure. I want to be touched, to be adored. My heart yearns to smile once more, laugh from my soul, feel alive, dancing on clouds, our stepping stones to heaven. I want just you. I recall, how the mysteries of the universe, bonded our souls to ignite lost flames. Vibrant embers floating from star to star, how stardust glittered in your hair. Naked moon shone through your eyes - as the galaxy admired us drifting nonchalantly. In horizon's black shroud, you were a masterpiece of magnification. Subtle artistry of your touch, seduced silent stars to sigh. But as each star faded away, Jealous sun stole you from me. In my breathless ambiguity, I ponder if you were a hallucination or fantasy - only my lover in distant dreams. Now the beat of my heart is out of tune, in the absence of my sacred beloved. Yet, I still feel you inside me. I curse the necessities of reality, searching for my spiritual lover. Close my eyes, to sleep for eternity - seeking that alternative phenomenon. Where romance and love reside in a never ending story. An amazing collaboration with my dear friend Silent One 3 November 2020 I was bullied two years ago here and was too scared and hurt so I left. But today I am back to stay. Thanks to our great friend Silent One for his most encouragement and belief in me. Thank you

Hello Allina Downing, when one partner does not feel love, for the other person, it hurts. It hurts badly like you feel you will fall apart ,romance should reside as a never ending story. Enjoy your day my friend.

WoW! Anika, You and Silent One have penned such a well written collaboration. Your ink flows great together! I found it to be romantic and alluring at the same time. Excellent job. PS, Anika I noticed that you weren’t around, I didn’t know it was because of bullying. Cyberspace bullies are nothing but cowards. I’m so glad you back:-) Alexis

Congratulations! For you and Silent One win. This is a fav for me. I apologize for your mistreatment on this site. Didn't know going. for the last couple years. People can be mean. As my high school teacher told me. Let no one put U down. When someone points a negative finger at you three pointed back to them. Let no one put down your processes of good. Write on-Write on and forever Write on God Don't Make No mess, You are blessed share ALWAYS God and your combined Co-creativity--- : )
