Modern Day Helen of Troy

Modern Day Helen of Troy

With a face that someone said launched a thousand ships

Who could make me immortal with a kiss

Who can break a man’s heart and make him melt with a glance

There’s a feeling that if I touch I will burn

flesh and blood the gods envy.

I seek your hand, need to be near you, and to feel once again.

I want you to ask me to walk into the sea and drown with you.

For then we shall be together forever..

You have changed me with your glance.

I am a super black hole, an exploding Planet

You are Unobtainium

You are the Helen of modern times

Mark!  Excellent write.  I like the descriptive imagery in the work…the way you "melt down" your emotions until you reach the state of impending immortality…"I want you to ask me to walk into the sea and drown with you…For then we shall be together forever."  All consuming…unobtainable…yet one kiss, one caress just might transport you to Olympian heights!
