The timeless secret of the universe
Is a lover’s long shot gamble at play.
Some sense it is a high and mighty curse
And know it’s a sky rocket price to pay.
This biologic cracked phenomenon
Is crazed instant attraction chemistry.
Mad magnetic pull on women and men
When all to soon ’me’ becomes a brisk ‘we’.
The flashing from lightning's take-over bid
Drive emotions to a climatic high.
As its striking can blast a head's fixed lid
To an exposed risk and primeval cry.
It’s the clinquant seductive explosion
Of a passion fruit eruption in spring.
Aching moan of a brassiere undone,
And the lusting for a rushed diamond ring.
The sunlight piercing volatile lead light
swiftly harlequins the hues of the heart.
As huge waves crash to a thundering height
with Mt. Vesuvius volcano’s start.
It’s all the world’s merry-go-rounds spinning
The sick gut wrenched lover’s body around.
And the vertiginous rider clinging
To finally faint and drop in a mound.
The timeless secret of the universe
Of crazed instant attraction chemistry.
Can surely make us all shook up and yet
True love may take time and reason to be.
