Aphrodite isn't just love and sex and frilly pink bows,
She's passion, the raging fire that burns between the hearts of two friends or lovers when one is under duress,
She's the unbreakable bond of family (found or bio), everlasting, infinite, no matter how close or far they are,
She's the pain of a broken heart, manifest in anger and vindication, the one standing behind you as you confront an abusive partner/friend/family member,
She's salvation for everyone who has ever been or is being hurt,
She is self love for everyone with self esteem issues, looking you in the eye as you stare into the mirror and saying 'You are wonderful just as you are',
She's the comfort when you're in your darkest times, Her hands cradling you as you cry into Her shoulder,
She's the swelling of your heart when you experience new love or when you pick up a child,
She is justice for every queer person of the world just trying to exist peacefully-- transgender/sexual, intersex, aromantic, asexual, non-straight,
And She is the feeling of your smile slowly fading when you didn't realize you were smiling at all.
