In her ominous visions, in my nightly hallucinations,
She dwelt within me, exercising authority.
Her priceless intention, her primeval motive
To entice me to caress the pale horse.
Today she points her finger and beckons invitingly.
Charm oozes from her lips and her seduction envelops me.
Dominating me, she distorts my sanity,
Leading me to a fate that was once her own.
The cruel simplicity of the underworld -
Persephone's home -
Occupies my mind, holding it captive.
Hades smiles whilst his wife whispers soothingly in my ear.
Tomorrow in my trance, her voice will overpower me
And my recollections of you will fade into a past of unreality.
As the moon disappears and the darkness descends,
My hand will let go of yours and reach out to the temptress.
