Immortal Highlander

by Ixora   Oct 31, 2005


Ive fallen deeply in love
With an immortal of dark
With a body like a gods
And words that leave their mark

A forbidden desire
for a huntress to keep
to fantasize about him
even in her sleep

a voice of rich, black velvet
and skin as smooth as night
a caress of midnight hair
caressing his gray sight

a voice so pure and exotic
attempts of escape with no avail
pressed against a fragile woman
a barbarically, mysterious male

Here i've fallen into his arms
and i've fought him for so long
both denying the truth of love
only to go back to the arms i belong

When we've wasted so much time
Fighting an inevitable fate
When we've found a chance at peace
We've waited for it for too late

The enemy wants revenge
With love as both weakness and strength
It doesn't matter if he wins
for her he'd go to any length

And with one deep passionate kiss
He stared into her eyes of blue
She stared back, both filled with emotion
Both saying "I Love You"

He turned back and how he fought
He fought well until he'd die
Left her alone and dying inside
With tears that would never dry

Now in her son she sees his father
The beauty, the barbarian, the man
Takes him now to return
To her lovers foreign clan

Upon arrival the clan excepted her
It was nothing like she planned
And soon she went around the hills
Marveled the beauty of Scotland

Grief overpowered her
How she missed her one true love
She broke down on her knees
And cursed the gods above

In the dusk that was now dying
She saw a shadow from the sky
running into the arms of her love
they both started to cry

"Cara mia" he would say
"I ask for your eternal bond"
she repeated the words after him
without even having to respond

She didn't ask how he was alive
as long as he was here
spent the whole night making love
and a day holding him near

How deeply they were in love
She with a legend greater then Alexander
Glanced into her husbands loving eyes and said
"How i love you my dark highlander"

-I like my romance books what can i say...long live Karen Marie Mooning for her highlander books:)
