Poem; Cupid’s Arrow
When attraction strikes like a thunderbolt
Unexpected, out of the blue
Your eyes
Alive
Alight
Eager
I’ve held onto them for too long
Uninterrupted
Admiring
Then I move down to your open white shirt noticing one too many buttons undone
You know how to look good, yes you know!
Chest hair exposed
No control
Instinct drawing me in
How many seconds have passed?
You are all I can look at
Excited
Are my eyes dilated?
Then someone moves between us
Unaware of what she’s done
All I can think is;
How can I remove my prey?
But she is unaware of her move
The strength of pleasure
That split second moment
Atoms and molecules fusing
Cupid’s bow hit me
Here you were in front of my eyes
And now you are gone
Far too soon
Where did you come from?
Venus is where you belong
(An encounter with a beautiful stranger, that split second moment in time)
