Aphrodite

There is a fountain 

Where youth is grand

And love with happiness

May always stand

A place to stay young

For all eternity

Where not one woman

Suffers pain of maternity

From once you lay 

Your soul in this water

The pain slowly goes away

As you submerge underwater

You must stay here

Until you can't no longer

For if you don't 

You won't be stronger

You must stay

Until you can't breathe

For when you do

The water is like a sheathe

It covers your soul

Your body and heart

And you become recharged

And prepared for a new start

This is the fountain

The fountain of youth

Where Aphrodite bathed

And has shown the truth

The water has healed

This broken human body

And now she flows through

And becomes an antibody

She made me new

A piece of art

I'm her new body

This is my restart

I am Aphrodite
