A parable concerning Love

Love is deep. The depths of which we all seek to reach.
But its not just a single pit for one to blindly fall into.
No! its a complex network of tributaries,
Which inter-weave through two heart sized labyrinths.

Too Many angles and levels to explore infact.
Near misses of past
A couple of near connections.
But never a perfect match.

Each of us harbour scars from the knife,
Of a scorned love. One which cut us deeply inside.
But we seek love still, as if it never did cut with a knife.
The truth is, love is the currency of life
Without which we would be unable to feed, drink or survive...

If love truly was a currency the truth is,
I am but a peasant, in the eyes of the world and its people.
At present, Wielding nothing more than a dollar and a dream
Funny how Both resonate within the same pocket seams
But this is not who was born to be

That's why I try to sell my dreams to any women who would dare to listen.
Its not to crook your pennies from your purse strings,
But to feed off the support of just one who believes.
That some day I WILL rule as King.
Despite having no crown or the requisite lineage.

If you do believe then take my hand in marriage.
Be my uncrowned queen and together we will become a force that no army could manage.
An all conquering monogamy who's legacy will never perish.
Immortalised forever in the paparyses of the Gods as a point of reference,

For love...

Like Adam and Eve.
But far greater still.
My vision for love is more akin...

To the mythical love of Isis and Osiris.

Likewise-
Love, Love me till my final breath, never leave me wife-less.
Resurrect me in death should Set and the enemies come to knife me.
Mother my seed who will avenge my death and restore order and righteousness,
That he may Breath a new wind into the empire in our image

That's the perfect definition of what a wife is.
Love, If you promise to walk in her likeness,
Then I promise to honour you with a throne on the right of where mine is-
His and her Highness.
Entwined forever through love. That's the perfect definition of what life is.

Love is Life and Life is Love.
