L'aventure Amoureuse (The Love Affair) Although I tried previously denying, the fact is, the attraction to him was immediate. Causing currents of passion to invade my body instantly. My thoughts, no longer my own thinking, but oddly conjured by Eros. The target of my desires, flaunts skin as soft as butter crème with lips the feel of silk. His aura emits an attractive confidence that fills the uninhabited space around him. His beauty is breathtaking. I begin to resist with magnificent fortitude, but my foundation is already weak. After all, it is his undeniable adoration I seek. I relinquished myself unto him as if I were attached to strings and his name Gepetto; while I lay beneath him helplessly cast under his spell. At first chance, I devoured his flesh like a starved beast and was satisfied. Stolen moments of ecstasy seem to have lasted an eternity. We lay still in the night, encompassed by silence, embracing each other. Tears filled my eyes; I turned my head away from him as they hit the pillow, an arrow pierced my core. Now days have passed and the allegiance our souls formed has been broken by antipathy. Typically, the affects would be minimal but I find it not so with him. Endearing terms no longer grace the lips that have kissed mine, snatching the very air I breathe away. Colorful conversation has been replaced with achromatic niceties to pass the time. I find my mind racing with the same lustful perversions as before, but without adequate feeling. My heartbeat increasing, my breathing unsteady. I'm ready to offer him absolution, and be content with my own regretful conscience. For carelessly, he contrived to win what I said so boldly would not be compromised. But I must concede gracefully. So with my pen alive with ardor, I saturate the tablet that set in front of me. Dripping nectar of bitter love, I write to release what is contained inside of me. Dispelling the pages of my testimony on to the floor, I purge the pain through screams and tears of mourning. I'm fearful of being a fool and having leaped too soon, afraid of facing judgment and ridicule. Thus my confessions are simply stated, I have fallen in love. Haynes, Lisa U. Poetic Warfare.
