“I will be forevermore drowning within the depths of you.”
© JL Thomas 2019
I tenderly cup Helena’s face in my hands and look deep into her eyes – They’ve widened. I then tell her, “I’m not just falling in love with you anymore, Helena.”
She looks saddened and a little confused. Her voice barely a whisper she asks, “You aren’t, Darius?”
I hold her gaze. “No, I’m not.”
“Then…” she pauses and blinks, “… you… you don’t love me anymore?”
I smile and gasp, “Oh, my darling angel, I do love you, more than you will ever know.”
“Then what do you mean that you are not just falling in love with me?”
“I mean…” I take a huge breath and say, “I’ve fallen into you.”
She frowns. “Into me?”
“Yes, into you.”
“Can you enlighten me?”
I do just that by explaining to her that she is like a comforting azure warm ocean.
Her tone light, she questions, “I am?”
“Yes, you are and do you want to know something else?”
She nods and I answer, “After we had shared our first kiss, something magical happened to me, so therefore I want you to know that I will be forevermore drowning within the depths of you.”

“Becoming a father increased my capacity for love, to love and to be loved. When I fell hook, line and sinker for Helena, I would never have believed that I would be able to give, that I could even consider sharing a single fragment of my heart with another- only her, but as I sit here in the rocking chair and a serene calmness surrounds me, I gaze down upon our four day old twins, Athos and Lucy. While I cradle these tiny little miracles of life in the crook of my arms, another level of love expands within the four chambers of my heart. Everything that once created my tumultuous past has paled into insignificance, and at last I finally feel as if I am not just systematically breathing in oxygen but that I am alive in the truest sense of the word. © J.L. Thomas 2019”

“When we finally release from our first kiss of the day, as the sweet taste of Helena’s mouth lingers on my tongue, I am left inebriated from not only the soft touch of her lips but also the warmth of her tongue as it danced around mine. I feel as if I have been sipping on the finest of champagnes and the bubbles have gone straight to my head. I open my eyes and the vision beneath me is a true beauty to wake up to. I gaze down upon her and as she beams me the most beautiful smile a multitude of harmonious new sensations surge through my veins. At an alarming rate they flow freely and as they reach my heart and pierce my soul, without any warning, I find myself free-falling into her encompassing aura. She looks up at me and sweetly asks, “Are you alright, Darius? You seem to be somewhere else.” I roll onto my side, rest on my elbow and cradle my cheek in the palm of my hand. “I am, baby. Do you think you find me?”
... She creases a little worried frown and tells me that she’s confused and she’s not sure if she can. I smile at her, give a little chuckle and reassure, “Don’t worry, I’ll find me.” She manages a half-smile so I slowly start to trace the outline of her heart with my finger. I press lightly into the centre of the invisible template drawn and whisper to her that I am hiding somewhere inside the precious place that is nesting beneath her blood and bones. I am in fact dwelling in her heart and I always will be. ©JL Thomas 2017”

“Bitch… the fucking bitch! When I get out of this contraption, I’ll kill her for playing me off against my master… I’ll kill Tobias for raping me… No, actually … I think I’ll torture the mother-fucker first and then kill him… and after that I’ll fucking murder that double-crossing so-called master of mine with my bare hands!”

“On breaking from our impromptu kiss I found myself saying, “I’ll never let you go, Helena.” And I was stripped back a layer of my defence when she replied, “And I will never let you let me go.”

“I NEVER SAW HELENA COMING…’ © JL Thomas 2019
I can’t pinpoint exactly when it happened or even when the love that so firmly gripped my heart began. The reason for this is that in the midst of the calmness that was surrounding me at the time, I never saw her coming. I was blind until she spoke to me, and as that single word, ‘hello’ left her lips and settled upon my soul, the walls of the world that had been protecting me since birth immediately fell away. I felt as if she and I were the only two people balancing on the curvature of earth. In that priceless second I had fallen so hard for her that the ache in my heart never, ever left me. Throughout the lifetime that we shared together, I never stopped wondering if she loved me with the same intensity that I loved her – The latter was answered when death separated us, and I saw her on the other side twenty years after her demise. – Darius Carter. © JL Thomas 2019”

“... CONSEQUENCES OF LOVE." FLAT-LINE - LUCIAN OXLEY © JL Thomas 2019
Lucian Oxley - “A few years after my wife passed, it became apparent to me that I needed physical loving just like anyone else, but currently I have no desire to let cupid fire, and therefore I will not allow my heart to be accessible to another.
I will not let myself be foolishly spiralled into the emotional side of love – Could the latter be preventable? Could I work out a way to separate the physical and mental consequences of love?
If I could, would it be possible to live one without the other?
Would it?" © JL Thomas 2019”
