The mighty Troy met its fate,
For two fools were young and naive.
Drunk in love, too blind to see;
Too weak to fight its intoxicity.
Untold misery it unleashed,
All in name of Cupid's wish.
Tell me how it can do any good,
a force so destructive, so devious and crude.
Great men have fallen prey,
greater women have lost their way,
To the charms of love's game;
Evil be its other name.
A bouquet of thorns in guise of a rose;
So be love, the Trojan horse.
Very nice for a first poem
Drunk in love, too blind to see
Lovers drown in love's sea
Yet it is the primordial urge
To avoid a greater dirge
Please do go on writing.... My sincerest best wishes are with you God speed
