Aphrodite in trouble

Skin out in the wind
looking for trouble
Body feeling things
inside that skin
Trouble just doubled

But no

I will stick to the stones that break my bones
and give you the power to hurt me

Will you?

Take that chance, reach out your hand,
and use all of your power to push me?

Instead of a dance and taking the lead, will you
overpower me,
drown me,
burn me,
with all your resentment and fury?

Will you be ashamed of the passion,
lose all compassion
if you don’t get a taste of my Beauty?

I am giving you this chance, so…

Will you throw the stones
to break my bones
since I gave you the power to hurt me?
