THE LAST WORDS OF A DYING QUEEN






The village was ruled without mercy by a queen whose heart suffered too many aches that left her sore for life.
She loved, she ruled , she killed , she saved and all the while felt nothing as the years and broken hearts took its toll on her.
The New moon was her last fight, she lay curled on the floor wielding a family heirloom- the defender , a sword that had served kings before her. A sword by which she fell men and nations in their thousands.
She was a warrior , she was a lover, war favored her but love didn't. This was the musings of her heart as Sir. Kipp stood over her almost breathless body while she sang:
Hold my life and tear it apart
I can only feel as I die
Take my heart and make it stay warm
As it burns and I die away
Show me love and hate me the same
I can only feel as I die

...in love and war

    This is the path many ladies are unconsciously on in this our days..letting go of pain from the past is key to the room that habours love that today has to offer

    Its well. Strong women always fall victim of love maybe because the men in their lives always fear of being ruled by her one day, they unintentionally start maltreating her for fear of their insecurities.This will now make her broken and never be willing to give love another Chance

      I am very much aware that most men get intimidated by a woman that is strong willed and independent, little wonder they end up with submissives as wives.

      I personally believe that if a man leaves you simply because he is threathened by your personality, then he isn't worth the effort, nor should you carry on seeking validation in men. Life has a lot more to offer for you to stay pining over a love that wasn't meant to be.

      Also, that single experience or as many as they are, should not be a deciding factor in your love life, love will happen when the time is right.

    I read the story and I did not know what to say, but based on one or two of the comments made here, I will have to say something. You say ladies of our time are treading the path of this queen. Yes I agree that some ladies are, but I think you are looking at this from one perspective don't you think?

GOOD INTENTIONS - A HARMLESS VISIT

Monday morning came with its usual nagging and longing for more bedtime, but Frank was already used to it. The shrill cry of the weird Chinese melody that was supposed to be his alarm tune never failed him. Now fully awake, he stood up, stretched his limbs and chuckled soon as he noticed his breakfast boner, reaching for the air-conditioner remote on his nightstand, he turned the cooling unit off, then walked across the room to switch on the lights. After bathing, he got dressed for work and sat down on the bed. Opening one of the nightstand drawers he retrieved his daily devotional which he read before kneeling and praying for a little over ten minutes; fellowship with the Holyspirit was very important to him. After praying, he grabbed a particular notepad from the only table in the room and stuffed it into his backpack before exiting the house. Frank got to his workplace a little earlier than usual, so he seized the opportunity to follow up on th

INSIDE STORY

The alarm goes wild and Janelle’s phone falls from the bed as she stretches and wearily opens her eyes one after the other.  She suddenly realizes how cold her pink-themed room is and sighs as she spots her duvet nestled to one corner of the bed, far from her reach. “Thank God I live alone,” she says as she sits up nude and lazily walks to her live-sized mirror to admire her very unique physique; her legs are as straight as the Pillars of Hercules, joined to her pelvis on which her very African hips sit. The brown of her skin glows and only darkens where her areolas sit on her perfectly formed upright bosoms. This appears to be a regular routine every morning and the smile presently adorning her spotless face is proof positive that she enjoys looking at her reflection in the mirror. Her reverie is cut short because the reality of being queried should she get to work late, dawns on her, so she saunters into the bathroom. Opening the cabinet to her right, she finds

Dear Tola,

We fell in love and that was the problem, seeing as we sauntered towards an end that had no beginning. We laced our hearts with a love that was borne of pure lust and eschewed every promissory note of trust. Tee...I'll lie to you if I say I didn't have my doubts when we decided to try. You had your reservations yet the forlorn feeling that adorned your guts motivated you to trudge whilst pushing for a relationship that had no foundation nor a reasonable future we could see at the time. Last night when we waved goodbye and I watched the lights of your taxi trail off , I thought for a moment what my life would be like without you... ...I had no answer, and this really disturbed me. If we were characters in a movie, this would be the scene where a montage plays out, showing different scenes of our show of affection. We would be holding hands , dancing wild in the sun, throwing food at each other as we cook in my kitchen, there'll definitely be the pillow fight and it'
