This is my poems.... no laughing and no stealing
Ode to Persephone
It's been a time
Since I found you
In the garden of despair
Planting sorrows
With a unguarded heart of gold.
Precious metal to mere men;
To me, you mean much more,
A boundless bounty of the gods-
You're a deity in your own rite.
Whoever knew that it'd be you?
To bring Lord Hades to his knees
Bowing at your feet
With a bouquet of poppy seeds-
Flowers for the dead, I suppose
Accept this as a token of gratitude
For bestowing me with resurrection
Breathing a new life into the depths,
Springing forth my essence
Through your gentle magnetism,
Keeping my ambitions grounded.
My crowned jewel-
What other gem
Has toiled through brimstone
Misshapen to perfection
And appears as the archetype
Of Immaculate Conception,
My most prized possession
I hold you in the highest esteem.
You fit best under me as my underling;
Pardon my merciless grip-
My heart is forever chained to you
Think of us as cellmates sharing in misery;
Luckily, your company is worth the keeping.
Tears for the Living.....
