TESTIMONIAL - by an anonymous soulful siren

because she was only vaguely aware of how she was connected to him. In all the eons since they had been disgraced, she always knew the truth about him; he loved her beyond anything created by God or man. While she slept, he covered her lips with his tasting the sweetness of her lips, smelling the sent that was hers alone. Stirring in his arms he realized he had little time. Smiling, he rarely smiled but when he did it was glorious, he placed his hands on her face, repairing the damage, making things right for her, for her alone. He could feel her body change, she curled against him breathing in all that was him. Her eyes opened as she sighed at the sight of him. Immediately recognizing the gift he had given her she offered a gift to him. Shaking his beautiful head, instead he took another kiss, one that she participated in, tearing him asunder with raw need and passion.

He moved two of his fingers toward her forehead. “Please don’t” she begged, “Not this time. Don't take the memory of you from me again.” She held his hand in both of hers.

“It isn't time yet, Angel” he rested his forehead against her. “I'll always be near you. I'll always love you. I have left so much with you this time, I'll only remove me. It has to be that way, you know it.”

Tears fell from the gray eyes, the eyes always the same, While she could, while she was aware, she held part of her heart pressing it to his chest. He drew in a deep breath as it settled next to his heart filling him with the love she felt for him. It had happened so quickly that he could not stop her, he did not wish to stop her as he felt the tenderness, the love, the passion flow though his body. “I love you,” she whispered turning loose his hand. He kissed her, touched her forehead, she fell into a deep sleep. When she woke, all was as she had wished it to be, all for which she had longed. She looked around, moving back to the ways of the humans without realizing that she too was not quite as human as the rest of them. She felt the warmth of the sun as if gentle arms caressed her, it was a good day, Many would follow.
