Devotion
I am a stained glass mosaic
A visibly pieced together piece of art
I'll let the light shine through, but so will the dark
Think you can handle that?
I am a painted, pottered mug
Beautiful to look at
Useful to have around, but fragile to the tap
Think you can manage that?
I am Medusa
Cursed by war
Cursed by snakes, but my heart is turning to stone
Think you can understand that?
I am Aphrodite
Cursed to love what I do not
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Cursed pursuit in the shadows, but I do not want to hide
Think you can entomb that?
My name is Persephone
Kidnapped by grief
Taken hostage by love, but lived in sorrow
I am translucent, yet reliable
I am scorned, yet revered
I am juxtaposed to my imposed imposition
And i cannot be free from these shackles that keep me fortified
I am forsaken, yet forgiven
I am castrated, yet changed
I am no longer the pieced together piece of art, or the painted, pottered mug
I will always be Cursed, and Kidnapped and a hostage
My name,
Is simple devotion
