Persephone's Dilemma

Whispers in the dawn, a silence so deep

A maiden's step in the meadow, where shadows creep

Persephone, daughter of springtime bloom

Lost in a garden of sweetness, beneath the moon

Golden hair flowing, eyes like dawn's first light

Dreaming of colors that dance in gentle flight

But fate is a whisper, soft as the rain

Drawn by a mystery, bound by the chain

Oh Persephone, queen in the shadow's embrace

A blossom torn from her place

Sun and shade, a dance so divine

Lost in the balance of time

Hades the lord, in the depths he waits

A throne of silence among darkened gates

He calls her with a voice cold yet kind

A world beneath, boundaries undefined

Caught between worlds, both shadow and light

Seeking a dawn in the dead of night

Oh Persephone, queen in the shadow's embrace

A blossom torn from her place

Sun and shade, a dance so divine

Lost in the balance of time

Fairy tales and fears entwined

A tale as old as time

Choosing between the earth and the sky

Persephone’s silent cry

Spring returns, yet she must stay

In the eternal sway

Persephone, in the shadows she reigns

Sunshine and sorrow, her secrets remain
