Cupid Pours, From Love's Golden Cup

Cupid Pours, From Love's Golden Cup

Sad knowing thy heart was so bruised
Seeing deep pain in such blue eyes
Tragic, such kind heart thus abused
By deadly slashes in dark lies

Pray I, for soul's quickest healing
With a true love to soon arrive
For such brings, joy and new feeling
Pray again, thy heart feels alive

From this, my sad heart, words now poured
asked relief, thee sweet bird flown high
After flight of thee, wherein soared
Thy new love life, once gone awry

May Cupid pour, from Love's true cup
Truest of love's glows to cheer thee up

Robert, you quickly bowled a strike here. "Seeing deep pain in such blue eyes" - That is a profound thing, the emotion there. It may even be a subtle, quick image, but the pain in somebody's eyes, or the pain in an animal's eyes, ah such depths....
