Piece by Piece

by Larissa   Mar 4, 2005


Her nature was fair
She had good intentions
Yet her happiness and contentment
Varied

As the sun showed
His brilliant glorious chariot
She brightened
So much that
She herself could withstand
The glory of Helios’ carriage

In the midsummer moonlight
She glowed
So beautiful
Irresistible
Yet cannot be touched
Her divinity is too much to bear

She was happy in the summer
She could finally be free
From the madness in the home she lives in

Yet when winter came
She was gone
Every plant died due to Demeter’s loss
She could no longer be alive
The cold sullen silence of the snow
Was unbreakable
She died
