ADVENTURE 101: Places I’ve Never Been Before
Thursday, July 3, 2008
Sadistic Cupid
Cupid… Cupid… Cupid… A sharp-shooter cherubim. He always hits the bull’s eye and not a single arrow goes to waste. I took a deep breath and he released his first arrow. Bang! Bull’s eye! Right in the middle of my heart. A sharp-stabbing pain into my chest and out onto my back. Again, one deep breath. Another pain. His arrow stayed in my chest for a while, then I pulled it out. Now I went to bed to find serenity. Without a warning, Cupid is slowly pulling the sling. With one big sigh, he let go. Pain! I crippled, grasp for air, one risky deep breath, sharp-stabbing pain again. I placed my hands on top of my heart to shield it from another surprise of Cupid. I tried to protect it from him, but as I do, he knocks it with a jackhammer. He pounded it and pounded it as hard as he could. Once more, I tried to battle his brutality. The way he pounds it, it’s as if I could hear my heart beats. Without any reason, that seraph of love will just stop and leave. Then, he will wait for another moment to release an arrow and swing his jackhammer. Cupid… I know you’ll never stop. *deep sigh* Ouch! There he goes again.
