Cupid
Late nestled on yon Venus' tender breast,
Young Cupid lay in torpid slumber bound.
Then, waking from that languid seat of rest,
He sighed, out-peering from his blind around.
Straight arrow fast against taut bowstring pressed.
And gallant swain did he at length espy:
Gave flight apace to arrow quick and true,
That mounted through the clam'rous air on high,
That callow, rustic heart smote nigh full through.
And there engendered ardor yet to vie
The heart of Rosaleen to win in love;
Who hath his suit ere now full high disdained.
Yet Venus, gazing down from throne above,
Upon the youth sweet speech of Love ordained,
Whence won the swain the hand of that sweet dove.

You know I will always love you Far beyond eternity Much longer than forever For you meant so much to me Longer than a million lifetimes As long as time has its place I will always have you in my heart Soul to soul and face to face You will be there in my waking hours I will spend time in your dreams Two heartfelt souls together Embracing love as warm as it seems You know I will love you forever I can feel you in my veins In every single breath I take I can even sense your pain But there is nothing here quite like it And nothing that can compare With the fire and the passion And the depth of love we share Theres a friendship that holds us together Even when we are a part Through many smiles and laughter And caring words from the heart Through the aches of separation Reminding us just how we feel Often speaking the words I love you Is most caringly revealed You know I will always love you You are the answer to my prayers My sweet and guiding angel For in life no one can compare With the love that you have given me And your words so soft and true To tell you over and over again I will always be in love with you
