The Beginning of the Tapestry

Could I leave you? Could I really fend off the tears that would batter my heart? Could I
Dante the man you love follow through, martyr my heart?

My life was slain with arrow and bows, they kept on firing fatal shots, until they thought
this man would go, he refused to be beaten not then and not now,I am your Man for eternity
as this tapestry doth show.

Is this balantant blindness, a refusal to see? go see now and read phropesy for it
predicted you and me!

I looked and I read of an angel without wings, how a feather was missing, and her voice
could not sing, a stranger beckoned come close to the edge, and she tremored and feared,
dear lord call me instead! He persisted his voice was all she could hear, and without
resistance her body came near, are you ready dear child to come to the edge, to hear what
I whisper, to denounce fear and dread, 'I am fearful you see my wings lack a feather, and
to fall off this edge I just could not, never'! Dear child your so innocent made of life's
crazy chemistry, but it's written can't you see? in this love's pure tapestry!

There listening can you hear them, they think it's all us, and the tapestry writes of this
one unique love, but the tapestry feeds all of love and of life and it's pages reveal
every husband and wife!

Ok I think I see, yet still not quite sure, your saying that whats happening was predicted
long before?

Shhh slowley your running before you can walk, and you can't learn whats being shown
before it's being taught!

Do you think this tapestry has no illusion or emission, dear child this tapestry has an
angelic mission

You came and found me locked away in this prison, yet not once did you question your focus
and vision, within walls made of concrete barbed wire and towers you sat by my side and we
talked there for hours.

His mind replayed there touch when she did visit, amongst the guns, the guards and
prejudice, the intimacy they could not prevent when finally they kissed!

The convict and the Nun, in a visitors room observed, and when they watched with eyes so
damn intense they could not be seen nor heard!

For While  they watched with hand to gun, they never saw him tell her run!

So what is the tapestry and what does it say, and how exactly did Dante make her act quite
that way?

What happened next? what did they do when Dante wanted to run with you?

Well did things improve or did they get worse, you'll learn my friend in the coming new
verse, I will tell just what happened to me, when I fell in love with this beautiful Tapestry!
