Cupid's Victim

Cupid's Victim

A Poem by Omikron

Kissed by a feather
Touched by the wind
Without my knowledge
My soul was skinned
My heart was pinned
Hung on your wall
A beauty enslaved
I became your doll
No floor to crawl
A slave to the heart
I wish I'd been killed
By cupid's dart
Displayed like art
A body enframed
Nothing left but a mind
That can never be tamed

It's sometimes difficult to keep the continuous rhyme in a poem. But you've done it in great style.
Cupids arrow may hit. But that doesn't mean a bed of roses.

fun in rhyming but such a serious hurt put on your speaker .. i am an admitted optimist (to the chagrin of wife and friends sometimes) and so am happy in the resilience of your closing lines .. heavily emotive read for me ..its a deep pain no doubt

Great skill in rhyming the end of the previous stanza with the start of the next. I appreciate the work involved in that.
The imagery - a trophy on a wall - enslaved - excellent!
"I wish I'd been killed by Cupid's dart" - says it all.
Class!
