The Gaze of Adonis
If walls could talk, Adonis would have gone mad. Well, more mad than his current state. Returning from his travels, Adonis closes the door to his secluded studio behind him with a heavy bag. His calmness and allegiance has always been terrifyingly daunting. His pastime has always drawn curiosity and adoration due to the methodically undisclosed inspiration behind his paintings. Many worshipped and longed to be chosen as his muse, blithely, and easily bewitched by his beauty. A greasy, dark lock kisses the sweat on his handsomely chiseled cheeks. Although warm, cultured, and well-received by many; his hobby is discrete and crafted in isolation.

One Glimpse
Can love be captured at first glimpse? The warmth of the sun is known to drive one mad. From just one glimpse, Can one not distinguish thee to a horizon of serenity during golden hour? From just one glimpse, Can one’s song soothe; Just as the waves and a nightingale make a choir? From just one glimpse, Can a single waft make one recite the recipe of morning dew? From just one glimpse, Can one be kissed just as the ocean caresses the sky in the middle of June? From just one glimpse, can one not stifle at the sugar from pursed lips at a lemonade stand? From just one glimpse, Can our souls merge the time it takes counting each kernel of sand? Can love be captured at first glimpse? Just as the moon photographs the Earth during a Solar Eclipse.
