Love is Merely MadnessA Story by Logan GibbsLove looks not with the eyes but with the mind. And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind"Love looks not
with the eyes but with the mind. And therefore is winged Cupid painted
blind" I said as I laid across my bed, tossing my script book in the
air. "I've always loved that line". Julie chuckled as she continued to
stare at the game console she was so focused on. "What are you
laughing at?" I said, jokingly glaring at her. She laughed as she turned
around in the chair. "I can just
imagine baby cupid blindfolded shooting an arrow at some and hitting someone
else by accident," she replied. I shook my head and pinched the bridge of
my nose. "Well actually
according to Greek Mythology he did not have a quiver of arrows to shoot
at people, he was only a messenger,". She just chuckled again.
"Now what?" I asked "Your such a
geek" she joked walking over to peck me on the cheek. "No I don't want
your kisses, you made fun of me," I joked, "and besides
i doubt you even know who Shakespeare is". She glared at me,
walking over she laid down on the bed, her beautiful blonde hair hovering only
inches from my face. " How happy
some o'er other some can be! Through Athens I am thought as fair as she. But
what of that? Demetrius thinks not so. He will not know what all but he do
know. And as he errs, doting on Shermia’s eyes, So I, admiring of his
qualities. Things base and vile, holding no quantity, Love can transpose to
form and dignity. Love looks not with the eyes but with the mind. And therefore
is winged Cupid painted blind. Nor hath Love’s mind of any judgment taste"
Wings and no eyes figure unsheedy haste. And therefore is Love said to be a
child, Because in choice he is so oft beguiled. As waggish boys in game themselves
forswear, So the boy Love is perjured everywhere. For ere Demetrius looked on Shermia’s
eyne, He hailed down oaths that he was only mine.And when this hail some heat
from Shermia felt, So she dissolved, and showers of oaths did melt. I will go
tell him of fair Shermia’s flight. Then to the wood will he tomorrow night
Pursue her. And for this intelligence If I have thanks, it is a dear expense.
But herein mean I to enrich my pain, To have his sight thither and back
again." she finished as she pecked me on the lips. I pressed my hand
against her head, deepening the kiss, before pulling away,"that
was the sexiest thing you have ever said to me" I joked pecking her on the
lips once more. I believe the
most important thing about love is the little things we do for each other © 2014 Logan Gibbs
