Persephone

Flowers blooming

In all shades of rose

Garden of Eden

In the afterglow of a dying spring day

A silhouette rises on the horizon

The last shards of light illuminate her smooth curves

Hades waits under the shade of an oak

Smoky eyes fixed on her figure

Running down dark alleys in his mind

The God of the Underworld

Took her by surprise

Just a look in his eyes

How can this feel so right

Though she knows it’s wrong?

Following his wish,

She descends…

The flaming gates of hell

Welcome her like a warm embrace

The heavens never spoke to her

In the way his raspy voice whispers

Sinful truths in her ear

There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

The only heaven she will be sent to

Hozier

Is when she is alone with her master

Taken away by his madness

She lets go of all the lies she was told

An out-of-body experience

Last prayer for her damned soul
