My Aphrodite

I once had a love Who was most beautiful to me. I even went as far As to call her Aphrodite. Because she was the one From which I learned to care. I loved her deeply back then, But now she is no longer there. Though I still have much to learn, Since I am a mortal man, She showed me I can do anything If I truly believe I can. Just like ancient Greeks of old, My Aphrodite made me feel like a Hero, And, just like Hercules, she told Me, I am no longer a Zero. I am grateful to have asked Her to be with me. And now that she is back in the Heavens, She is now truly my Aphrodite.
