Such is love like dormant desert dunes amidst their decubitus decline,
Bewitching barmecidal brides beckon my last drops of desire…
Overwhelming obelus and ototoxic behavior in loves' great divide,
For the howling desert winds evaporate my love through eviternity…
Floccinaucinihilipilification flutters thru my mind upon dusty dunes.
Decubitus...The posture adopted by a person who is lying down.
Barmecidal...Illusory or imaginary and therefore disappointing.
Obelus...Serving as the sign indicating a division.
Eviternity...Eternal existence.
Floccinaucinihilipilification...The action or habit of estimating something as worthless.
I used these particular words...to show how sometimes love can be dormant & dying...plus dusty lol

Placed 1'st...Thank You
Your love orbits my celestial body causing earthquakes and floods,
Within a calamitous canopy mixing of the barbarous bacterial bloods…
A seditious satellite roaming amongst the scintillant sacrificial spheres,
Hiding amidst your clever cloaking giving me many torrential tears…
Your Supernova will combust leaving you stranded throughout the galaxy,
As the ashes that turn to dust releasing me from your gravitational agony.
