The tale of Persephone


Persephone loves Hades.

Dementer just sees the Hell.

Persephone is tricked by him into eating a fruit.

Now she's trapped by him in a neverending cycle.

 

Demeter causes Hell on Earth for everyone else.

She doesn't see her faults as a parent.

Now Persephone and Hades make a deal.

For every piece of the fruit she ate she has to stay.

 

Now Hades is lonely wawiting on tomorrow.

And Persephone is stuck in limbo.

Now one is confused about who is right.

 

Demeter was doing her duty as a mother.

Persephone was just beautiful.

Hades was just lonely.

 

Now this is dating when you have strict parents.

It's this tale over and over for everyone.
