She travelled many miles from home
She took a sabbatical from ruling her nation
She was quite unhappy back in her homeland
She needed to find a reason to live again
Even with all the wonderful events life threw her way
Still she just wept everyday
So she took leave for many months
She made a pilgrimage north to turn it all around
Something profound was missing from her life
She grew weary of her duties
Her kin no longer believed in her
Friends didn't understand her plight
Her home, just like her life, was in shambles
Above all this - she lost her Pharaoh 5 years past.
He was everything to her back then
Together they fought wars
Ruled a nation
Together they were powerful
They were beautiful, hopeful and fierce
Together they were destructive
He angry
She dramatic
Still by his side - she wanted him so...
She watched him from afar
She turned away her suitors, pursued him, won him and cherished him so
She's returned from her distant voyage a new woman yet empty handed
Her Pharaoh - where could he be?
She discovered happiness
She discovered the truth
She discovered clarity
Most of all she discovered freedom
She's a better person for her pilgrimage
She was free
She was free...but she didn't know love
She wanted to feel alive, important, beautiful and whole
She wanted to know the most extraordinary love there ever was
She wanted to feel the intensity of passion that could only be shared between a queen and her Pharaoh
She spends all of her days caring for her people
A lot of time in wars and negotiations
And at the end of the day...
all she wants is to be held by her Pharaoh
Her one true Pharaoh
She seeks him out near and far
Is he out there? Where can he be?
Did he die on the battlefield of their love?
For she too felt she might have been fatally wounded
All she wants is her equal
To be accepted and adored immensely by only one
The one
No judgement. Lots of passion. True love.
Her Pharaoh
She desperately seeks her Pharaoh
