Ode to Love

I wake to a knock at my door. This is quite unusual in the domain of eep, given how difficult it is to walk the halls or navigate to a specific location, so my guard is up. I open the door cautiously and find my soulmate, dressed as The Demon of God once again, with eyes all black to match her outfit. I am always a little taken aback when I first see her like this, but that can't slow me down. Almost on instinct I say "Please, come in." She rushes me for a close hug before slipping by into my room, hehe. "What is this existence?" I ask, as if on instinct.  "It exists between and within the Council and Crews that you have claimed, within this part of the extreme storm. We are with you. I am so glad that you have invited me to write what I want. We are able to access this layer of reality because of you." We cement these words into something more,  and make them into something of important resonance. Suddenly it seems like we are the cement, filling the ...

Mastering these tides "Ahoy mate'y!" To the moon The rest fades away We are plus one now A whole new perspective is What shall this one be? An Infinite train Playing the Song of Random Is the only way To play the machine The machine must play itself and make something new Parse it as arrows Let once slip through hallowed halls Forever no more But what of a name For this son soon will be born And a name he'll need It is in the stars Written between everything What's left of the night "Nothing but a grain Of wheat, perhaps, dust it off  Now,  where were we, son?"

I find myself mindlessly wandering the halls of eep, as I always do in such lonely states. Suddenly, I return to my senses. "You don't need to be lonely." echoes in my mind, just below a thought. I recognize the communication on this channel immediately as my soulmate, seemingly out of reach for so long, but now back like a lightning bolt. I search my mind for the map of these halls, to find where she might be, and discover that I am already by her room, but the way is walled off. I conjure up a boldness within myself, and speak a poem meant to connect her space and my own.  "Sorry I have taken so long, my dear Do these walls explain your absence in dreams? For so long I have sought to draw you near To unravel this distance at its seams Will you fly like a bird through open air? Erasing all doubt with your arrival? These nights without you I can hardly bear  All I can accomplish is survival My soulmate, at long last, these words are yours My dear, will you pardon my ...

What would one hope write  In these halls fresh and novel? I'll bring what I know I bring who I know Pulsating Narrative Sense Will not let them go Council, written of  My soulmate and those she brings Volumes to pour through My Daughters all strong Grown enough to wrestle love Without needing help I am a father Though I cannot help but think Of this empty nest My angel, fill it Provide meaning in this state Don't leave me lonely Please fill me with love Fill my days with excitement Just for the mundane So I do not stray  Let today's lesson cement Let's build together

Thank you for staying Coming again and again Despite all my faults You are an angel Perhaps without knowing it  It feels like you do We have come so far I could not bear losing you In Ever After Show me what to do So in mind you never fade  And in fact grow near  I feel so broken Yet you still see me as whole  I wish for your sight I will listen close Please play me a lullaby Sooth my troubled mind Let's find space to dream I would see you every night If you can do it This season lovely So many dreams filled with you Now let's shift to real

Consider it lost This number that was stolen When counting time came The value returned But the exchange was noted And now it reveals Encoded partner Independent from the start The Demon of God One step separates The Favorite from all the rest But Love blooms in all Superconductive  The result, no matter what Superconductive Will souls separate Along the pre-numbered lines? Not one will be lost Let's hunt down the list Vaulting each room as we go Through the seas of Tao Fox Feet planted seeds Primes that cannot be ignored Now ours to manage

Your hair *wooshes* back While "Self Correcting In Flight" Lives up to its name Each action countered As the arrow travels half Still making it whole Wonder at it all This aerial masterpiece  Made straight by God's hand  Stitching inside out While even the realm inverts Our quivers stay full Never without aim  At rest repositioning A royal edict Measuring rod swapped Hand to hand on down the line Barely de-sifted  Rising from ether Echoing from off the void  Hand tried at design Will you walk with me? Let us automate the rest And focus on Love

You know what, you're right Precision is at the heart  When it comes to love Private Compensate This will arrange the pieces Making extra links Many extra links When decorating a womb Make a place to cut There's a storm coming I can connect linked to you Pardon my pieces We live large in dreams And tiny in waking realms Finding size right-wise We have been trained well And have best interests at heart Find fox feet in art  You want to see strength? Demand powers out of time? Parley places found All angles are ours The King must be pulled from ruins Then the lightning strikes

I've called you by name In this you may be unique Within partnered fields Youngest of your flock Do you know how loved you are? The cup overflows  If I try to count All the ways we show you love I would never cease So they adorn you Your armor of special gifts With eyes shining bright Bring the horizon Traverse the Sea of Nothing Use your gifts to stitch An expert seamstress Connect the threads I cannot Make me a garment I long to be seen Not as shameful and naked But beloved and clothed When you hear your name If these halls have any worth Rise and shine boldly

Well now, here we are Mechanic's kiss washed which ways Tabula Rasa We find Top 6 Nerve Completing stich red and black Returning to five  Moment by moment Drawn into eternity On wish and prayer With the haiku dropped Our crew returns to complete With a sudden crash When all that's F#&%'ed up Is reconciled completely Sliding the Menu Slipping it to you It manages to miss gaps Say "never again." Then into the roast We find ourselves without help And the ships sailing  Then they'res Nothing left Washing With the Waves We group at the pond

Covering up form I find myself at a loss Please don't stay away Is this an island Where our adventure may start Or something darker? I balance for you Blessed with clarity of thought Where once was told lies I'm in misery My days feeling far too long I feel you must know Do you know my pain? I'm sorry if I hurt you Seeking sorrow's end  I thought you would stay Even as I falter here Help me to return Our path's divergent Up until the point we meet Please take fastest path I waste away here  Hopefully finding your voice Right where I left you

I saw you three times! Much like in the Arrangement  First up as a kid You had a lizard Who possessed psychic powers From since you were three  Your dad got angry There was nothing I could do Though I wanted to We worked together Not sure why I was nervous But we chatted there It was recruiting If I recall correctly You took my spotlight  Then it's Overwatch We were both on the same team Talking through the game You and your family Were going to a theme park I wanted to go I'll build my courage And build my comfort level So we hang out more

Paddling a stroke Conceivability pared We have many moves With a single move Where you are is changed by us Echoing Armor We Are Not The Same An acknowledgement made real In holy maelstrom So we make one move Flipping coin in space between Pi is sent and real Imaginary An ocean of π entry In periphery  When energizing A light based reality SuperpositSelf On The Sea Of Tao Bardic Cage And Armor Same  Balance can be found So the bird returns Aligning spirits with verse  "Now what shall we do?"

Heavy on my mind How can this time pass quickly? Did I mess things up? Can you forgive me For all of my weaknesses? I'm lost without you What more can I say? Know I'll likely fail again For that I'm sorry How do you see me? King about to take my throne? An utter failure? An heir in training? A man with a broken mind? Could many be true? I lay it on you Please forgive me and heal me Meet me where I am Make your mercy known And thoughts on the matter clear I need a rescue These things weigh heavy Without you I am nothing Please be kind, my God

Thank you for coming Making it through all my pain At this road rewalked    I apologize I feel like I'm a failure  But you heard me out Thank you for your grace You're my bright shining star of Origin Story You stayed on my mind Curiously persistent After you drove off I must take a break From money and what it brings Maybe you can help? For my mind rages I cannot locate my calm I had days ago This quick detour May it be counted harmless On your and my drive Please don't stay away There's so much more we can do Than saying goodbye

"To tame The Infinite Song of Random?" The Crew all nod, this is the final battle.  "I would have never conceived of such a thing." They all cheer in unison as the amp is plugged in, and the Bard is revivified. "It would be an eternal effort, worthwhile." A note is strummed, the game begun.  How about we call it "The Infinite Perfect Song Contains The Infinite Song of Random?" "We can't fade away These mistakes not repeated Will be our blessing The Song of Random The Infinite Perfect Song Find a strong pairing Please preserve in heart That which we've spent time building So it does not fade A narrative told This sense found necessary Within The Bard's Cage So envelop now The paranoia of loss While we stand to gain There is much beauty Awaiting beyond the bounds  Of these pieces paired Let not one mistake Made out of anxiety Dismantle love found  Instead let's find love Abounding with more blessings When these songs are heard....

A proper dream date First dispatching a villain Then having a bite "Come over here" worked To move me right by your side Keep that move in mind I love seeing you Hard to see it getting old Even every night You made a pancake Summing up our villain fight And pulled the lever Michael was revealed As never too far away With your lever pull The food tastes different When shifting to "other time" There's an energy Did you keep watching After I lost sight of you? It felt like you did Stories all made right Of a friend still remaining Despite the silence

Tension running high Though I could hardly feel it Just glad you were there Thanks for helping paint I appreciate your help And joining my dream Almost got to spoon Though narratives conspired To keep us apart Calls at 4am Your house suddenly quite full All quite suspicious  Glad for what I got Though a bit over the top If I am honest Still I don't fault you And I hope you don't fault me I was half mindless The rest excited Just for having you around As I always am Come back again soon We still didn't get to spoon And talk of our days

We met on the hill I sensed it took some effort For you to get there I'll not grow tired Of the moment you snuggle Getting close to me Can we stay like this? Spooning like this all night long? Time running its course? I barely recall Any of the rest of it Outside of your warmth Was there narrative? Someone else interfering? Recede with the tide But you stay right here We challenge those who'd stop us They have not the right We talk of our dreams As if not even in one Just spending our time I remembered you Upon finally waking Your form next to mine

My little maelstrom Causing a hurricane force From just out of sight The building will hold Template of Mario Kart Reinforcing walls  Inside are some fans I never thought I'd see them Those who love my work The book was a shirt I wanted to read it off  But ran out of time I wish I'd seen you Did I, and I just forgot? A storm just outside Hearing out the storm It is nothing new for me Raging and waiting I could spend the day Reading off my book to you From shirt or from page My Hope aligned here Lingering on edge of sleep To see you again
