The Bondage In Our Souls
The Bondage In Our Souls This book continues the story started in 'An Allegorical Love.' Without giving anything away, two children, both the oldest of three, stood first in line against the abuse of the very people who bore them. What the children and the world never noticed was the devastation that lay below the surface. In that, they were lucky; their grandparents counterbalanced the nightmares with dreams. They washed away the alcoholism, narcissism, and physical abuse with comfort, compassion, and bear hugs. They propped them up on countertops and let them sing. The grandparents watched Batman, Kukla, Fran, and Ollie with them and patched the holes in their young souls. The similarities in both our childhoods were what built our bond. Why the universe placed us in each other's orbit, I accepted as a gift. One of many I figured I'd earned. I know damn well Ms. Sarna has earned hers. She has lived with Lyme for twenty years. We never met in person. We didn't need to. Despite verbal role-play fantasies, the reality is that our bodies are fatigued from disease and arduous work. Rough sex was only wishful thinking unless gene therapy ever becomes viable. Then, Lord, help us both; there may be bruising. My point is that love will find you when you least expect it. It comes at an inopportune time. Love smiles upon us when we have nothing. I believe it smiles as proof that our hearts still belong with the one they were meant for.
