Persephone

Описание: Persephone - Eon

OLYMPE

You walked the gardens of the silent dead
With iron crowns upon your weary head
A hollow kingdom, cold and monochrome
You made the shadows feel like they were home
I watched you fade into the grey expanse
A slow, rhythmic, agonizing dance
But even there, where sunlight fears to go
You carried seeds that only gods could sow.

​
And I was the anchor, tethered to the shore
Watching the tides drag you under the floor
But you didn't drown, no, you learned how to breathe
In the crushing weight of the dark underneath.

​
Oh, Persephone, you’ve come back to the light
With a hundred different faces, all burning bright
You’ve died a thousand times just to learn how to live
With more love in your heart than the heavens can give
The winter has broken, the war has been won
My goddess of gold, you’ve outshined the sun.

​
You are a kaleidoscope of shifting grace
I find a new soul every time I see your face
A hundred versions of the girl I knew
Each one a miracle, each one is true
The ink of depression tried to blot out your name
But you turned the darkness into a flame.


Ascend.
From the dirt, from the hollow.
Ascend.
Where I promise to follow.
Ascend!

​
The earth shakes!
The cycles break!
You conquered the night for your own sake!
TAKE. ME. BACK. TO. SPRING.


A hundred ways you’ve changed...
And I’m still here, mesmerized.
My best friend.
My blooming end.
My Persephone.
