The Call of Persephone
As I walk along the shore I can feel myself shake
The world doesn’t quite look the same
There is a scar running through from the quakes
I just couldn’t seem to hold back my rage
The world is changing fast and not from me
The last time it was this bad I was with Hades
The world grew cold and then hot as can be
When I came back to see everything I could
But it is happening again, not from my accord
How can humans be so blind to this dire situation?
But the second someone mentions it they all grow bored
The forests disappearing like they weren’t even there
The air is barely breathable and the nymphs work overtime
Trying to clean what little they can
Few humans, if any, are spending the smallest of dime
To try and save the only home they will ever have
The world is dying as I sit on my throne
Welcoming all those who have died for the cause
I will give them the warmest of home
Then send them on their way to fight once more
It is an endless cycle of loss and despair
As humans continue to exterminate the green
They are killing all we gods have put there
Not knowing there won’t be anything left
So I beg you humans, who named a planet after me
To stand up, take charge and save what you can
Let it be apart of your history
That you didn’t sit back and let it fix itself
You’ll have no help from me, this is true
But on your own, you can stop all the death
There is no limit to what you can do
Every human needs to prove you are worth saving
