Eros never sleeps
in pitchy rooms.
He wakens
in a roll of laughter,
pulls us to a clearing
in the forest
where he strokes our cheeks
and gives us up
to dance.
When life inhales
Eros grins:
there is no dark side.

Wow, Betty–WOW!
Lovely natural feel to this one Betty – your ‘back catalogue’ is most impressive.
There absolutely IS no dark side in love, true love, dear Betty!
This made me smile, Betty. There is no dark side. I would wish this would be true forever.
Yes, just when you think when your heart will never see the light again … Lovely, Betty.
Sounds like any slick salesman to me. They never mention the small print.
