Heart And Soul (The Short Story Of A Prince) Comments

I am no longer wanted in my Kingdom for I have denied my father's wishes to marry the princess of the adjacent land. I have been cast out by my own blood, and I sit on the edge of the world not knowing where my future lies. I am of the heart and soul not of thy head that thinks of only riches and lands. In time, all will understand my decision, they will concur with all that my heart desires.
The path before me may not be an easy trail to partake, but I must cut through the thickets of my life and hold my head high. I am of faith and I know that my love is out there waiting for my arrival. She is on the same path as I chose and we shall meet head-on with no doubts of the heart. Our souls shall entwine and we will be as one in the presence of God.
All alone in the wilderness of my thoughts I see what shall become. As I said before I do not know where my future lies but I know who it will lie with. I have seen this in the visions, through the thickness of the trees that stand before me. I know my love is winding her way towards me as I do the same. The barriers that try to hold us apart attempt to test our faith in our god and we shall not bow down to their temptations. We have the strength and conviction to carry our hearts to the end of time, if only to be together for a short while.
My lands are far behind me, my father the king and his people have long forgotten their Prince. I pray that God will show them the true path to riches and glory in their hearts so that they may accept my decision to be free and love the one I was truly meant to love. I do not know if this will come to be, but my blood is my father's blood and he resides in my heart even though he has cast me out.
