When Persephone Fell For Hades

By Abarna N

Strolling the one way path amidst the forest

Caressing the wild grasses and waking them from rest

Surrounded by giggles of nymphs

Saw black smoke moving forward

Automatically my lips curves upward

Rat a tat begins playing in my heart

Wondering what is this crazy feeling

Are you perhaps my destiny ?

Met with your deep black ocean eyes, perfect art

Which pulled me in , and I am falling

Heat rises in my cheeks

And the nymphs around me coos

Whispering about you being king of darkness and warns

No matter how much turns I take

I end up fixing my gaze on you

And when your eyes fixated on me

Everything else disappeared except us

You , Stoic face , showing no emotions

Because of you , my heart here is filled with tumult of emotions

You who carries box full of secrets behind your eyes

You who has many dark mysteries buried deep in your eyes

You who has the darkest aura , is the one to be blame

Why I am pulled to you , like moths attracted to the flame

The way you care about others

Even when you act like not giving a damn to others

Smile of yours , Oh , it Hit my heart just like Ero’s arrow

You pulled me in

And now there is no way out ,

And I got

The urge to know you

Until I find the deepest stories buried behind in your eyes and listen without prejudice

The urge to comfort you

Until I find the darkest pieces in your heart and fill it with love

The urge to take your hands to go wherever it may be

To see the end of the horizon , doesn’t matter wherever you take me

Shaking my head , decided to follow you

Escaped from fall , thanks to you

When your eyes fixed on mine

It bored holes to the soul of mine

In your arms , I felt safe there

And I felt home there

Before I can thank you , you vanished in thin air of black mist

May be next time, I slowly walked towards the meadow

With a smile , by the thoughts of you

Until then stay safe my love

Cause , You , You are my destiny

Oh ! That day Persephone saw Hades and fell in love .
