The Loss of Persephone

The Loss of Persephone

A Poem by *~Imperfectly Me~*

 

The Loss of Persephone 

 

The pain of Dionysus…

 

Tears dripping against a pillowcase

Fears building, covering your face

Exhausted cries of no more

Suffocating screams from your core

Popularity at it’s worst

The worry you might burst

 

Psyche’s curiosity…

 

Hope of a child

Pain of a death

Gain of a new family

Happiness of another breath

 

A brand new masquerade,

You don’t want to share

Breathless gasps for air

 

Hands clasped together

Eyes closed tight

Life without time

Wants of tonight

 

The Maenads Thyrsus…

 

Happiness of a win

Claustrophobia closing in

Fame going to your head

The want to lie in bed

Sadness of a loss

The feeling of exhaust

 

The loss of Persephone…

 

Tears dripping against a pillowcase

Fears building, covering your face

Exhausted cries of no more

Suffocating screams from your core

Claustrophobia closing in

Breathless gasps for air

Happiness of another breath…

Such accentuated emotion- this is very well written - the concept is functions in multiple ways
the title-creates a metaphorical glimpse for what's to come-as you break the idea into four key
elements-each building upon the next- starting with tears and ending with tears-realistically portrait
examination of life-contemplation is at the core-showing what it means to struggle
in light of controversy-The loss of peresphone- experiencing the pain caused by such events.

"Tears dripping against a pillowcase
Fears building, covering your face
Exhausted cries of no more
Suffocating screams from your core
Claustrophobia closing in
Breathless gasps for air
Happiness of another breath�

This was a great flowing piece of godly art! Almost song like, it tells a tale about each of these famous characters. Once can clearly feel each stanza in a unique light.
Great Job! :)
