The Bard's Love Song...

Come, I pray and hear the words, which I speak which be the ballad of mine heart. Friend or foe alike, it matters not, for if I am heard one or many, then, indeed, I shall be satisfied. For that heavenly muse, who loves and lives us all, hast pressed upon me speech to share with the like.

 

        I put to words that paradox of the soul, which smacks of such truth it blessedly wounds each heart it enters. God’s gift and Satan’s tool to bless or curse any unsuspecting one. I take to heart that which any heart fears to hate and hates to love; the fool’s shelter; the trap of the wise. I speak, good sir, of love, a passionate, lustful love, which ignites the soul and rejuvenates the spirit. Love; sensual, sincere, sorrowful love. Simply love.

 

        If hither or thither thou goest thou shalt, indeed, meet such a power from which all power is derived. And what be the fount of this power but the second made; they who first took to sever us from Eden; they who look to us more fair than fair; they who be the rib lost to gain. For what could be a finer vessel for thus than such a lovely creature of such delicate and graceful repute? Who, indeed, can better capture the heart with but a glance from soft, soulful eyes? And with a word make race our hearts and mould our wills. By these proofs I defy thee, sir, to find a finer prize to bless and curse this earthly orb.

 

        A lady fair to call his own be man’s greatest goal. An opposite the same to love, hold, protect, cherish, serve and forever link with. There be no greater desire than to regain that flesh of his flesh. From dust to thus it astounds, and for this form his love abounds. Man clings to truths that hath made; for every he there be, a she there is to match. So, lose not heart, m’lord, if alone thou doth wait, for God shall bless thee with a blessed mate. If, that is, thou can wait; for in His time shall true happiness be got.

 

        But, Oh quandary! For thou may wonder, what be the worth of this accursed wait? And thine inquisition be well justified as long and hard seems the road of love. But, for answer look only to the first pair of love. Those blessed two in the garden. Adam received his greatest gift, and she was fair and lovely, indeed; a perfect match for that lonely soul who, in paradise, was made alone. And no greater blessing could he wish. Likewise thou, too, shalt receive such a gift, one of life change and betterment, when He, who has and gives love beyond love, sees fit to bless thee. Remember then, freely ye have received, freely give to her.

 

        So, take heart, good sir, for though it seems that they, those she, are beyond our means, they, in fact, are so. But, that is no reason to despair, for God be with thee and wilt guide thee true; and soon there wilt be someone fair for thee.

 

Yours truly,

Lord Seth Exodus
