Cupid's Arrow Poem by Margaret Austin Go

One look
You stirred my lungs
Now you filled it with stars
Must be fate's caprice
maybe Cupid's feats
Did you feel it too?

This trance
Explosion of suns
Like shoots of fireworks in my head
You took out my fears

In silence I swear I did hear
The clock as his arms sojourned
and how they felt like years
Might be Saturn's rings misaligned
Could this be a sign?

Tell me how can I recover
from your sad eyes brown like amber
as they reveal your sorrows
Please allow me
dig your heart so I can repair it
Is this not enough
to believe that gods set us up?

Take my hand we'll ask the gods's permission
or maybe a reason for this collision
Because if time is relative
When our eyes met
I felt we're infinite
