An Ode to a Goddess

I would sing a song for you

I'll raise my voice and make it heard beyond the mountains

I would mourn for you
Let my dried tears be your solemn memorial

I would have your portrait hung in my bedroom
And I pray those colors would not fade easily

I would offer burnt sacrifices at your feet
For you are my goddess, eternal and majestic

I would recall how your perfume intoxicated me
So would I with the scent of the flowers upon your tomb

I would never forget to wipe your marble tombstone
And take heart the lyrical epitaph inscribed therein

Never would I forget how you ensnared me
With the gentle slivers of your passionate love

For your life has fulfilled mine
And your death destroyed mine

May the angels in heaven care for you now
And rest happily, my beloved goddess.
