Cupid's Other Arrow

What is Love?
But a double edged sword...
Like Cupids arrow,
That pierces your inner core,
A harpoon of love driven through your humble heart...
Emotions gushing out like an erotic volcano,
Lava Love, hot and heavy.
This brings forth fertile ground...early spring
Flowers blossom at your touch...
Animal magnetism...
Sexual convulsions...aromas of Amour-
We indulge in the full spectrum...
The gambit of Love...
Oh Venus...how we love to love to love...
       But... Cupid has another arrow-
A magnetic harpoon...thrown at the speed of light,
To my metallic Heart...
Thrusting my inner core of emotions...
A vomiting volcano spewing the guts of love.
Lava blood running red...with smells of cinder and dust-
Like swallowing a burning cactus...thorns of despair...
Oh Lost Love...
All Love is lost...
Oh Aphrodite what dark seas have you cast...
The lava is melting my soul...melting...meltng...mltng...mtng...mg...
