about

I am fascinated with the myth of Persephone and Hades, her dark transformation, the duality of the Goddess of Spring and birth, and her role as the Empress of the Underworld.

lyrics

You glide through the Sunlight and the Shadows...
Neither holds anything to fear for you.
When you walk through the Dark Underworld, Lord Hades yields to you
With a slight bow and a smile, he favors you...

You became the Lady of the Darkness,
From a frightened girl to the Woman you've become.
Dread Persephone, You rule the Underworld
Yet to the World of Man you still bring the Spring, with all the green, and goodness that springs there from...

Dread Persephone, You are the Empress of the Darkness...
And still the Goddess of the Spring...
Half in Shadow, half in Light
Goddess of all the green and growing things...

You became the Lady of the Darkness,
From a frightened girl to the Empress you've become.
Dread Persephone, You rule the the Underworld
Yet to the World of Man you still bring the Spring, with all the green, and goodness that springs there from...
