QUEEN PERSEPHONE'S NIGHTMARE!

My love you have a penchant for pallid vacancy

Like foliage in hibernation - lacking bloom

I reside between seasons of frost and fire...see

Consigned in the dark heart of immortal gloom

An infernal act this pleasure you inflict

You! a ghost that wounds the earth upon which I walk

I hear you pronounce another maledict

As the nightmare ruptures my aching heart and stalks

Me into dreams of lustful and vicious passions

Into the void your arms empty me far beyond life's reach

Spilling me deep into terrifying obsessions

Though Cerberus guards the gate I would force a breach

And renounce my infernal crown and diadem

To return to the living world once again!
