“It was a very special moment for John's spirit was awakening and he was opening up, I had touched and resonated with his soul. It was more than just cyber sex, more than making love with someone you loved, it was blending souls as soul mates do and it was an incredible moment for the two of us. We both cried beautiful happy tears” ― Astrid Brown, A Psychic Affair: A Romantic Novel

A PORTRAIT OF LOVE
Such a sad affair, a runny watercolour sketch A lesson in life upon my brain to etch Only loved with a pure heart A hauntingly beautiful work of art That touched my soul like no other In shades of blue and azure Paint tears down the canvas Forever, for eternity and ageless Unconditionally so and forever in a sad hue Sad shades of grey and disbelief memories of you And all because you could not accept what was true Preferring the vibrancy of lies and fabrications Distortions and mistrust are your demons Not mine, I only painted love pure of my soul My fragile heart you ripped apart and stole You decimated what was beauteous that I created And there a portrait of love lies desecrated
A PERFECT SOULMATE
Silver glinting strands across my face On the floor discarded lace An empty glass lips taste of wine A look a glance says you're mine A kiss so deep takes my breath away Your warm firm touch, I've longed for this day As dappled moonlight reflects on the floor I'm breathless and begging for more As tender kisses rain on my face There is no other perfect place To be bathed in your love all night long Knowing this is where I belong Secret kisses, looking up with brown eyes They smile at softly moaning sighs And when you take me and we are but one I know I am where I belong For perfect union, is more than physical its true A blend of souls I have with you For deep within those dark deep pools I see A perfect soulmate at one with me
A PRETTY PICTURE
I had painted a pretty picture That was my fairy tale Where dreams come with happy endings And into sunsets we'd set sail I coloured it oh so prettily in a rosy hue And filled it in so warm and fuzzy Full of love for me and you I'd finished my picture completed it with frame Decorating and surrounding it full of loving hugs Alas before the paint had dried, over it began to rain All my love I'd worked into it was so easily taken away All for one shower of lies A pretty picture ruined and destroyed that day
I KNOW YOU WATCH
I know you watch and spy I sense and feel we have a bond you and I We need no words to link our mind We have a connection of a very different kind The miles mean nothing there is no distance For I can travel and see you in an instance You may not think I do not know But there is no where I cannot go I hear the melody your soul sings along For it sings with mine where it belongs For now you may deny and not believe But one day the truth you will receive And when you do you will regret Just how stupid that you let The one who's soul fitted yours like a glove The one whom with you is still in love But until you see the errors of your ways The soul who loves yours will apart forever stay
LORD IN YOUR IVORY TOWER
In your ivory tower you look down Be careful there don't drop your crown As you lord it there with your righteousness Martyr of your facetiousness Such a hypocrite who insists he's always right Be sure of your facts before picking a fight If you listen to gossip of a jungle of monkeys You'll hear the Chinese whispers of harpies You may think they have your best interests at heart But deviousness they have down to an art One day my lord your tower will collapse Foundations broken by lies you'll see that perhaps So be sure of your facts before you preach For Vampires they are they'll suck and leech And when your tower is raised to the ground Your so called best friends wont be around They will have moved on to find the next fool I tried to warn you I tried to tell you But there you were up high on your pedestal You know what happens to the overly proud there comes a fall And all because you refused to listen to what was right Alas my lord now if you'd only had some foresight I hope for your own sake this you will see This my lord is my prophesy
LOVE LETTERS NEVER READ
I write you letters I never post Emails I never send I have so much I want to say, how I love you most I write you verses of all the ways Of how I miss you so And dreaming of how it could have been, had you stayed I write your name with yours and mine It's so easy to write the words If only it was so easy to put together, entwine I detail dreams of you and me I write them in a book Alas I write so much words, words you'll never see I pray and wish for every night before I go to bed That cherished hopes and dreams came true But they're love letters never read

Dear J: Poetry from the Soul
New poetry book explores all aspects of love and spirituality to heal and uplift readers. EDINBURGH, Scotland – Traverse an exhilarating and uplifting journey of emotions in the poetry collection Dear ‘J’: Poetry from the Soul (published by AuthorHouse), by psychic Maggie Brown.
“The book has a spiritual feel…there is a philosophical message in the work and as a result it uplifts and gives comfort to the reader,” says Brown. “I began writing poetry because I couldn’t find the right poem to send to someone. Sometimes it’s difficult to find the right words to say to a loved one, and within this collection there are many ways to express feelings.”
Dear ‘J’ touches on all facets of the theme of love, including anticipation, excitement, passion, despair and longing. The book is meant to inspire and give hope to those who are navigating their own confusing emotions, whether that be love, happiness or sadness.
Brown claims she was inspired by a channeled spirit while writing the book. Her favorite poem is “Dream”:
Loving every lick of your tongue and all the ways You express how you feel, with every tantalizing kiss The passion in your soul, the unadulterated bliss When you take me completely I die a hundred thousand times
Such an exquisite moment I just ache madly for this

DEAR “J”
The volumes I write are from the heart
Distance is no object nor being apart
I know I speak from deep within
I know I’m not perfect nor free of sin
But this I know what I say to you
These words are from my soul and all are true
Never have I loved one so much
Your soul, my heart has blessed and touched
Perhaps I’ll never understand why
Many years I wrote through the tears I’d cry
But I write with honesty and integrity
How we met must have been planned a serendipity
For although you’ve caused me so much pain
I won’t hold it against you nor to blame
For in doing so my soul has grown in strength
So I guess the reasons well must have been meant
For I am blessed I have felt true love
One so beautiful and given from above
Much more truer and deeper than the physical transient kind
Even though the despair at times nearly lost me my mind
So dear “J” I write to tell you I still love you unconditionally
Do you remember when your eyes saw mine That very first moment, such a long time The feeling I'll cherish in my heart forever Holding on to that moment letting go never Your eyes smiled for they spoke from your heart And even now although we are apart That moment so ever fleeting Is so fresh and cherished of that first meeting I still see that smile like that first time When your brown eyes met the blue of mine
One day my darling we will meet again As our eyes meet rekindling the flame A fire thats never died nor can be extinguished No matter the distance nor hopes relinquished For soul connections are eternal That bond of love is unconditional Nor year, nor obstacle can disconnect what is one No man can break, no bond undone For soul love was created at the beginning of time Eternally I am yours, and you are mine We cannot fight why we were created To be together our love fixated So we may be apart for the time being But relish all the love the memories are creating Hold them locked in your heart one day to be released For darling we will always be united until the Universe is ceased This moment is merely a grain in the sands of time Darling I am forever yours and you are forever mine
Her's is mysterious beauty incredibly deep As dark and thick as the forrest she walks when most souls sleep Her hair is long and lustrous adorned by moonlight She is a beauteous creature no doubt of the night Fire lighted, candles burn her enchantment starts to work Spiritual forces raised and run amok The passion she eludes in the subtleties she crafts so well She's captured your heart, you're imprisoned in her spell You'll never get it back, it belongs to her for keeps You'll be haunted by her forever in every dream you sleep
In life we make many mistakes, its the way its meant to be For when we do, we can rectify and see It's part of our spiritual growth and the way in which we learn But don't worry about what could have been and yearn Learn from the past and see what went wrong And make it right and seek the dreams for which you long If your wishes did not happen it was not the right time to There is a time for everything for your desires and hopes to come true So learn from your mistakes and don't ponder on "If only" You have been given another chance, so there's no need to be lonely The Universe is wise it knows how to plan and its knowledge is great For if you have a heart that's pure trust in its fate It's knows what is best for us, it knows before we do So believe in love and all its joys and its treasures will find you
When you know something is right, it wont go away It preys on your mind night and day But when the answer is soul deep It torments the mind as we sleep Do we ignore what our soul's trying to say? In the hope it will just go away Or should we have the courage to say out loud? It's the truth, what's right and be proud But if we chose to let go We'll spend our life wanting to know Sometimes we have to take a chance instead of "If only" Or live in regret, wondering and lonely Forget, what others say and feel Its in your heart what is real It matters not, if it seems impossible The Universe works in ways that are incredible
Great read, it's not the usual romantic novel it's a bit of a cross genre being informative and paranormal but it had me hooked, I would love it if the author wrote a sequel as I would love to know how the characters relationship goes I do hope the author does Sarah65 __________________________ Amazing read and was engrossed until I finished reading, this book is more than a novel it helps understand the psychic's world and has such depth of feelings Stella Matthews An interesting read different but I really enjoyed this book I liked the factual glossary at the end, it helped make sense of the paranormal happenings throughout S Williams ”
5.0 out of 5 stars What an Amazing Read :-), January 15, 2014 By Sam - See all my reviews This review is from: A Psychic Affair: A Romantic Novel (Paperback) I found this book totally drew me in and couldn't wait to get to the next page to see what was going to happen!
