So afraid it'll break

By CuPCake PiXie

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I thought I was falling in love with LoveThe Cupid's bow which nudged my heartAt first it didn't hurtNor did it painIt brought joy, it brought youIt felt like magic, they always saidBut where's the strings,The strings attached to the Cupid's wings?The arrow sharpened its tipIt took its time to pierceThrough my tender brittle heart,No chances did it giveI knew I was falling in love with himNo one ever mentioned the bow,The bow that twists and turnsRapturing that little beating thingI was so afraid to let goThis time, it was realThe reins were tugging, loose and tightIt was an uncontrollable sightFly away CupidGo home where you belongLeave me alone and take your bows with youFor I'm so afraid it'll break Written October 21st, 2001 © on Oct 21 2001 05:28 AM PST   0 • 8
