It Happens

Cupid shot and missed His arrow fell before it reached. Intentions to arouse emotions...failed. Simple, short: She couldn't be tamed. Did it need to be named? Or labelled Whatever it was-what he wanted to do? To make her see his aim to claim her love? It had to be more than sight More than eyes that met at night in the dark when a chemical spark ignited and manifested through words, through action action to explain the pains of emotion felt but died out in attempted communication.
