**Part One: The Arrival of Ringo**

It was hard to fall asleep that night, even though the evening air was nice and cool. Celeste lay in bed, tears streaming down her face as she fought against the storm within her. Her parents were separating, and everything she thought was solid was cracking apart. They didn’t want her anymore; they were sending her away. Panic gripped her heart as she felt utte...

I don’t lie.

Truth is my word, and the gospel is my breath.

You are on your knees at the altar of my gaze,

and you _beg_ for me.

Lust is my blessing and devotion is your satisfaction....

“He was tall and dark,

He smelled of mulberries.”

That’s what the myths said.

A primordial being,

Pushing existence forward.

I saw him once in a bar,

His clothes were bland,

But his face,

It held the universe in it.

From that moment,

I knew.

I knew it all....

Sometimes

Just sometimes

Our life shatters before our very eyes

Just like it was made of glass

We forget how fragile our lives can be

But just as easy as it shattered

Sometimes

Just sometimes

It can be built back up as easy

Let people in

Don’t be stubborn

Let those who care, help you

Let them repair you

So that one day you can be like Rome

And be whole again....

This is right

This is real

This is how it was meant to be

He showed us

He proved it

Sometimes we didn’t even see

So this is right

This is good

This is how it’s meant to be

We asked

We prayed

And the perfect friend was given to me

It is right

It is real

It is all meant to be...

All I see is

Shattered pieces

I can’t look away

From all this pain in the war we waged

A war never meant to be ours to fight

We were

The peace keepers

Never cause harm

And now all I hear is alarms

Going off in the distance

I can’t help wonder if this is how we end

The end of all that we stood for

All that we fought for

To fight for a Republic we’d never see

To fight for peace

And live out of s...

I am my father’s best soldier

and my mother’s most rotten daughter

Or;

I am my mother’s most righteous rage

and my father’s worst fear

A woman raised in carnage

to bring ruin

This house is not noble

and I will make it crumble

anyway.

I am no saint.

I am no martyr.

I am afraid.

I am my father’s best soldier

And I am my mother’s most righteous rage

I was not born for this;

And I will...

grazing the flower fields

feeling joy

when suddenly

there came a boy

his bright hair

and light smile

kept me happy

for a while

it was so

obviously fate

we were met to be

Our destiny lead us to this path to intertwine our lives to create a new future we’re we live in between our vines seek beauty through the pain .

Our love for each other like a rose to keep , with thorns that cut deep .

But our love to provide for each other something to forgive the past we lived to forge a new greater future full on new growth and dreams .

Meadows full of wildflowers edging...

In the hush of twilight's breath,

Whispers weave the threads of fate,

A call unheard, yet keenly felt,

Guiding footsteps to a destined gate.

Through the mist of time's embrace,

Echoes of a higher song,

A soul awakened, stirred to grace,

In the dance where destiny belongs.

Touched by whispers from afar,

A chosen path, a sacred art,

Through realms of dreams and stars,

The call of destiny sets apar...
