Calliope's Biography
The Death Of Sense
A chance encounter in a club,
or a blind date in a pub,
both beginnings of the end,
as rational thought we bend,
we think we are on a roll,
but really we are out of control,
as we lose grip of emotions,
and softly whisper sweet devotions,
love an emotion of commotion,
the death of sense without a potion,
matchmaker Cupid really an assassin,
his arrow striking a target deep within.
