My Soulmate, My Heart
by Elizabeth Vida

Deliverance

Predators did plan...., the destruction of all.
One species not two...., can survive the fall.
Who shall it be...., the survivors of war.
Humans with love...., or dominants who kill.

I left you behind...., holding my heart.
We search for some answers...., our survival's the prize.
You thought I knew more...., you followed me home.
Surprised by my life...., my dark lonely place.

I grabbed you outside...., in anger and fear.
Disbelief in my eyes...., admiration in my heart.
Project my true anger...., it's this fear of losing you.
The dark one is riding...., death's footsteps we'll hear.

Dismayed by your actions...., behavior's not right.
My species are watching....,a danger so real.
Hide all my feelings...., must follow the teachings.
Exposure and knowledge..., is death sentence earned.

You forced me to see...., to sense your emotions.
Two species, not one...., can survive coexistence.
Convince all my people...., we're better together.
If predator kills prey...., I'm lonely once more.

********

My mentor suspects...., this fascination for you.
Aware of betrayal...., he does not report.
Surveillance is high...., won't leave me behind.
I am his protegee...., I trained with the best.

Keep all my secrets...., must lie to your friends.
Watch for the danger...., your life will I champion.
Search for the truth...., awareness is defense.
But give me some time...., to accept my new actions.

********

New direction's required....,must risk meeting you.
Climbed through the window...., in dark I will wait.
Sensed your light coming...., ease my dark soul.
Surprised by my presence...., my bleak, angry face.

Why don't you listen...., why can't you see?
Lynch, a caged monkey...., he's a trained rogue.
Deep cover for Lewis...., reports all he sees.
Consider his facts...., your fate's in his hands.

Fear in my eyes...., comfort in your soul..
Not playing on both sides...., revealing all I can.
*Anger* you projected...., *nothing have you given.*
Control my own fury...., wisdom you must see.

Approached you in the dark...., disbelief in my eyes
Soul attracted soul...., my life belongs to you.
Betrayal is the hardest...., I'm still here, aren't I?
Hurt and all alone....., my species I've forsaken.

********

Lynch has escaped...., your death he did plan.
Prisoner no longer...., predator after prey.
Run silently my soulmate...., predator's at your heel.
Your death he is relishing...., fear fuels his heartless need.

Anticipates your moves...., he traps you on the stairs.
Stare deep into his eyes...., the animal deep within.
Force his beast back....., don't cower like some prey.
Attack him and run...., my choice is finally made.

Charge to your rescue...., leave my soulmate alone!
Attack my own species..., won't ever go back.
Defense is survival...., left me gasping in pain.
Can't terminate him yet...., his end is finally near.

You rushed to my aid...., saw regret in my eyes.
Sensed *joy* for my rescue...., *sorrow* for my loss.
*Thankful* I have chosen...., my species I've forsaken.
*Comfort* for my anguish...., reflected in your soul.

********

Across the distance lot...., a captive of the police.
Stare deep into your eyes...., *not safe for you nor I.*
Be watchful and aware...., my species will attack.
Must leave this open place...., or suffer painful death.

*Distrust* Ray projected...., causing all the deaths.
Released from detention...., no promise for her safety.
Response is aggressive...., she's mine to protect.
My reason for living...., my life is her shield.

Deep pools of emotion...., *my soulmate, my heart.*
Dream love will unfold...., desperation now cleared.
My heart is in your hands...., I am yours for eternity.
You're my other half...., we're destined for each other.

********

Existence of new species...., there is no suspicion.
So much to account for...., force scars on your soul.
The cave has the answers...., direct and impacting.
Reluctant to show you...., *revulsion* I'll sense.

********

Clothes from the dead...., felt *shock and regret.*
*Why?* filled your eyes...., it's survival of the fittest.
Accept this truth now...., the outcome of survival.
Species fight species....., the strong will survive.

*Fight!* for survival...., *conviction* raged at me.
Of course you will lose...., can't deny evolution.
Together we will die...., reward for my actions.
Dominants will survive...., they're the next evolution.

********

Discovered you now...., our hearts joined as one.
Soulmate to soulmate...., two halves meet as one.
Dare not lose you...., else lonely once more.
Never to leave you...., eternal devotion.




To be continued...

My Heart
Pursuit
