Goddess

 

 

 

Time weighs heavy on my soul

And the age of my body does not betray

The age and wisdom I carry within

Look at me once, and you will find a maiden fair

Look at me twice, and you will see your mother

Look at me thrice, and you will see the aging crone

Touch my flesh

And I tremble, yet a virgin

Look in my eyes

And see the knowledge that could consume you

Taste my lips

And know the greatest sweetness and agony

Pour through you like a river of fire

Vengeful and destroying

And release me

And I will give you life once more

And reawaken you to the coming dawn

Which I have seen more times

Than I can rightly count

Once

Twice

Thrice

Maiden, mother, crone

Sacred trinity

Do you want to know?
