Through Psyche's Eyes #1 - series
Divinely Fallible (Through Psyche's Eyes #1- series)
Your eyes fell upon
My peaceful slumbering,
And your mischievous ways
Were finally repaid,
When that golden dart
afflicted you.
Startled by opened eyes
That while seeing, could not see,
Staring through you
As the wound was made,
And your fate sealed within that gaze.
Finding that you, too,
Were just as vulnerable
As all the rest of us.
For you had unmercilessly
Brought so many to their knees...
With similar, difficult circumstances.
So you remedied your plight,
When you had Zephyr
Swiftly whisk me away
Into shadows of darkness,
And within them hid your face.
My invisible companion...
Whom men and gods fear,
You dwelled with me in solitude
Caring for my needs.
Yet, curiosity feeds and grows
On that which is unknown,
My eyes wanting to behold your face,
But you refused,
For reasons of your own.....
Asking me only for my trust and love.
Your eyes fell upon
My peaceful slumbering,
And your mischievous ways
Were finally repaid,
When that golden dart
afflicted you.
Startled by opened eyes
That while seeing, could not see,
Staring through you
As the wound was made,
And your fate sealed within that gaze.
Finding that you, too,
Were just as vulnerable
As all the rest of us.
For you had unmercilessly
Brought so many to their knees...
With similar, difficult circumstances.
So you remedied your plight,
When you had Zephyr
Swiftly whisk me away
Into shadows of darkness,
And within them hid your face.
My invisible companion...
Whom men and gods fear,
You dwelled with me in solitude
Caring for my needs.
Yet, curiosity feeds and grows
On that which is unknown,
My eyes wanting to behold your face,
But you refused,
For reasons of your own.....
Asking me only for my trust and love.
