Omnia Vincit Amor

By Maia Goldman

Imbued with palpable passion as your sparkling and striking deep hazel orbs lock with mine,
A moment of silence that speaks volumes.
A wave of shock shoots along my vertebrae when you caress my hand,
Sending a soothing melody swirling around my frontal cortex.

Dancing hearts entwined,
Your smile and suave voice like Handel’s finest symphonies driving my heart to contribute its own unique beat.
Kindling a flame enough to brighten the dark in the midst of the most ominous nights,
Making me ascend into heaven intoxicated.
Never-ending love is what I feel for you, like a melody that plays on in my heart.
I guess what they say is true:
Love conquers all.
Omnia vincit amor.
Because you’ve conquered all of my heart.
