Love Levies A Toll

Once pierced by Cupid's arrow, love's the only thing you feel. For Hope banishes all pain to the fringes of real. As euphoria floods in, sparks spontaneously start. And a warm sensation stirs; in the cockles of your heart. Forged upon desire's anvil; fantasies burn hot as coal. And tides of hope surge and ebb; in a lonely heart and soul. Freed by the passage of time; anxieties drift away. And though love levies a toll, it's one that hearts gladly pay.
