Disobeying Venus
He finds cause to bleed
Beautiful Psyche looks for love
He plants the sacred seed

Cupid finds delight
Keeping secrets from his quest
She obeys his commands
In hope, she will be blessed

When sisters prey upon her
Their jealousy prevails
Psyche grabs an arrow
On her lover, she assails

He escapes, her only fear
Flies away, and leaves her be
Seems Cupid’s betrayal of the gods
Was an act of conspiracy

Immortals have their way
In the magic that they carry
Human’s leave their mark
Upon their adversary

The full moon, a mere speck in the sky

A wolf, this powerful creature, was I

Transformed, I found my perfect place

No longer human, I have a new face

Whitened, my hair, like the snow, was my fur

Now a she wolf, I was no longer her

This was my destiny, ne’er to stray

Knowing I’d forever, stay this way

Her power of love weakened the mighty

The Goddess, a beauty was she, Aphrodite

Clothed in silken white, she gleamed

The vision of every human male’s dream

They bowed to her, these men, devoted

Hoping they would soon be noticed

And stand by her side, as her lover, no more

Immortality, is all they ever wished for

Echoes of Tears ~ #freeverse

#freeverse, #poetry, Abandoned, betrayed, dorindaduclos.com, human, Night Owl Poetry, poems, smuggling, trafficking, true events, writing

Authors Note:  This poem is based on true events in Texas.  The horrific way in which humans are being smuggled and trafficked has to stop!!!

They’re thrown, like trash

Into containers, chained

Padlocked, no air, no light

The only sound, echoes

Of tears, falling against

Metal floors, they dare not

Cry out, lest they lose

The only thing left, but life

Betrayed them, left them

Stranded, unable to survive
