Dear Persephone,
Please come back
I'm tired of the cold
I'm tired of the snow
I'm tired of this endless winter
And I'm waiting for your return
Dear Persephone,
Do you still hate it there?
Does it still feel like hell to you?
Do you still hate yourself
For being a few pomegranate seeds away
From what you truly wanted?
Dear Persephone,
Do you still ache for the above?
Do you feel like you don't belong?
You no longer belong to the world
But hell is hell, too
So where do you fit in?
Dear Persephone,
Have you forgiven him yet?
Do you think you ever will?
Or do you find yourself watching him
Not knowing whether to hate
Or to love him?
Dear Persephone,
Do you hear me?
I hope you do
I am a creature much like you
In a place I don't belong
I am a creature of the spring
I belong in the spring
Dear Persephone,
I know what it's like to be in hell, too.
Please come back
I'm tired of the cold
I'm tired of the snow

Depression
I'm tired of being here,
all locked up in my head.
Every day I hear a whisper,
and I'm closer to being dead.
Something taps me on the shoulder,
something I can't fight.
When it talks in that low voice,
my eyes are shut so tight.
Once it gets to a cetain point,
and I'm still sitting on the ground,
it tells me to do things,
I'm trying to ignore the sound.
Its voice is harsh and filled with confidence,
and I can hear a hint of sorrow.
Even when it's telling me,
I won't live to see tomorrow.
I don't know what to say,
and I don't know what to do.
I'm still hearing it now,
and I'm still suffering too.
I can't tell what its weak
Literature
Depressed
You go home,
Saying your life sucks,
Remembering all the bad things in one day,
how many horrible feelings you had in one day,
and wondered how it was possible, in one day.
Looking at everyone around you,
knowing everyone despises you,
hates you,
talks about you.
You try to be confident,
you try to ignore the sh**,
but in the end you know you cant
These people tear you apart,
not knowing you have feelings,
they ignore you
ruin your life,
and they dont even know it.
You try to ignore the sh**
but in the end you know you cant,
because these people tear you apart,
and dont even care.
Literature
Depression
Lay down your right to be human.
Put on a dazzling smile so that no one can see your pain.
You hide it all so well, but underneath your shirt you can still feel the scars.
No one knows what it is like to be you.
Your smile is but one in a billion,
A mask that you wear to ward off the questions.
Your scars are your war paint,
But this is a losing battle.
You are sent to face the demons all alone, though they will never leave your side.
So keep that pretty smile steady,
And don't let one tear drop from those stormy eyes.
Put on your war paint and go out into the world, where your smile makes you just like them.

I love Greek Mythology so much. And I love Persephone. I could also really use a word with her now...

Focus on her. You do so well in your writing. Give her a form in your heart, and she will answer back.
I had a fun time working in ritual with Persephone and Hades to create a play with their likenesses invoked. She's really a happy personality, and he's ever the charmer. I'll send you a copy, if you like.
