It was so long ago,
when I last saw you.
Bathing in the light that trickled like a stream,
in the midst of your father's olive grove.
Poetry on Greek Mythology, quotes and whatnot for all you lovely nerds! And there's much more than Mythology he...

Tell me you love me Tell me with your face of dainty spring Show with your mind and soul of darkness. Love me with the beast beneath your skin, Let your rage, With my darkness sing.
Tell me you do not regret, For you lost everything when you came here. Tell me I set you free. Tell me that you were longing for this For this new breath, Tell me it was me, That gave you happiness, This life.
Because my dear Persephone, My fierce wife, And regal queen, You are the storm that breaks me, The life I need.
And if I have wronged you, Forgive me, my darling. My love, Persephone, if only you knew, How deep it runs My life, My throne All laid bare before you.
If you could do it again, Would you stay? Would you stay in this world you brought life to? Say yes.
Say yes, Persephone, For you are all I want, All I wish for All I need.
Say yes, You'd do it again. You'd break free of those gold, jewelled chains. That diamond choker, Was still a noose. A golden cage is still a cage.
The God of the Dead, Who loved a goddess of life. The fates might have chosen it, This lovely thing we share. This dance of dark and passion, That no God would break, Would even dare.
