athena.
your mind
and your tongue
are the greatest weapons
you’ll ever need
artemis.
you were born
with silver in your veins
so take aim
and don’t hold back
persephone.
living in hell
doesn’t make you
any less
of an angel
hera.
marriage is meant to be
a lifelong relationship
and the most important marriage
will be with yourself
demeter.
take lessons from the harvest;
even the smallest of seeds
can flourish
into beautiful trees
aphrodite.
your body is your armor
your shield
and your greatest weapon
use it well
rhea.
like the tides out to sea
you may crash
before you can
flow with ease
hesita.
sometimes
you have to look
beyond your four walls
to find your way home

a little known fact- i'm wiccan. one of my deities is aphrodite. originally i was going to write this poem about her specifically but it ended up being about multiple greek goddesses.
i don't have very much to post today, partially because it's late and partially because school has been kicking my butt ): i have the day off tomorrow though, so i'm going to make some posts and schedule them.
i hope you guys are doing well <3

Ooh this was nice! I think Greek goddesses have the prettiest names, they work well in poetry.
ReplyDeleteI love your poetry. Especially the one about Artemis. :)
