The Waters That Led Me Back to You

I know too well how this story goes…I have seen it all, even to its very end. I have tasted its love…sweet and sour…and drunk from its portions of guilt, woven delicately with pleasure. I have bathed in its forbidden waters and dined within its castle of denial.
But how can I resist it all?
The sea creates pathways that lead me into its chambers…the sea in all her grandeur, her songs woven around treasures hidden beneath coral reefs. The sirens surrender their time to singing sweet songs of secret love affairs, while the ocean waves accompany their melodies with the harmony of subtle splashes, here and there.
I swam through waters that led me back to you.
And now, a tale once forgotten has begun again.
The lake was warmer, her waters more attentive. The beauty she exudes is all she seems to care for…for beauty is bliss, beauty is power, and beauty is the soul of the earth itself.
And so, with jewels of the sea, herbs of Gaia, and potions prepared by Bathesda herself, we perform the beauty rituals of ancient times. Oils of enchantment, drawn from the exotic leaves of Gaia’s gardens and the sacred herbs of Sheba, are poured into the waiting waters.
The bath itself is blessed with these potions, and the feeling is overpowering…as intense as the ecstasy felt at the peak before climax. It is a pleasure that taunts every being into submission, awakening an all-consuming passion belonging to both worlds.
Now, lest I go mad with desire…bring me citruses, watermelons, and sweet grapes. Let them burst upon my senses before the day begins.
Desiderada’s path leads toward the treasure of the soul, and there, the Most High is to be praised and worshipped. There, we ask for forgiveness and pray only that we may dwell within the garden of bliss…once called Eden, though now it resides within the soul.
And Shiva?
Her temples transcend time and space, reaching into the mysteries of the universe. Prayers steeped in incense and rituals performed in devotion prepare the mind for transformation, for we have only just begun.
And when Andromeda descends, only to ascend once more, we return to our birthplace for but a moment, there to witness the alchemy of stars and planets alike.
When Jupiter ascends, stories shall be woven into song and dance, and queens shall build alliances across the heavens…alliances that transcend the triviality of time.
