Oh Persephone ,
what a dread you have been ,
a gold drenched blossom
in my meadow of wilting flowers –
your eyes of kaleidoscopic jewels ,
find no place in my realm.Oh Persephone ,
I beg of you to stop this madness –
this undying insanity you
so innocently call love.
A viper you are embellished in gemstones ,
you have bared your fangs into my skin ,
you have poisoned my heart
with your fleeting fancies.Oh Persephone ,
I despise you –
for all the colours you have bled
so recklessly ,
staining asphodel in all your
sunlit glory.
The ambrosia that encompasses you ,
your lips that taste of pomegranate ,
you don't belong with an unwhole soul.Oh young Goddess ,
you must stop me.
I forget the world –
it's chaos , and the bloodbath ,
the fates and their curses at the gods ,
when your skin lies upon mine.
You have made me ,
the ruler of the unseen and the dead ,
a mere puppet of your will.Persephone , my love ,
I abhor you –
for cursing me with this so called passion –
for loving me with those sanguine lips that can only lie –
for making me feel like a mortal ,
beneath your bejewelled eyes and your carmine lips.I fear you , Persephone ,
your faith and belief in me –
your devotion and the calm your semblance holds.
Don't go , now , this your fault –
love me till the end of time , you have tied your fate to mine.
Wash your past away
in the tides of Lethe.Oh lethal creature of the morn ,
scream your melancholy into the pits of Tartarus.
What do you fear more –
the echo or the answer ?
