I have devoured Persephone, the pomegranates, and death
myself. Stolen the myth and carved it open for myself. Ripped
it and twisted it and spit it back out until the only thing left
is a story about a girl-goddess, and myself.
Maybe I’m being too selfish; maybe I’m being too vain. Maybe
the myth doesn’t belong to me, maybe Persephone had nothing to do
with a girl from a nuclear world about to split in two. I taste pomegranates
sweeter than she did; I taste death sweeter than she did.
But still, I eat the myth and let it pour down my lungs, crawl inside my stomach,
linger in my bones. The taste of Persephone in my mouth, the powerless to
empowered, the morals disintegrating upon my lips. Children respect what
can eat them; I respect what I can eat. She belongs to me, now.
She fell, she was pushed, she climbed down looking for adventure. She fell
in love, she fell in faith, she fell in hate. She picked six seeds and shoved them
down her throat, she was forced, she was starving. She had a choice, she had
no choice, it doesn’t matter, everything matters.
She is a story, a painting, a poem. I am real and human and breathing and she lives
inside me because I want her to. Because I want to run my fingers into the ribs
of her messed-up moralizing mockery of a tale and pull out the intestines and
squeeze them until something real bleeds from them.
This isn’t a poem about Persephone. She doesn’t exist, and I do, and I ate her.
I ate her whole, till Demeter stopped screaming and Hades stopped scheming,
and the only thing left is me, and the taste. Me and myself. She exists within me,
however I want her to. This myth belongs to me.
She chooses the pomegranates now, because I want her to. And so did I.

AURORA’S ACTIONS CONFUSED HER. her words, struck a pain in angelika’s chest. did she truly believe that all she was to angelika was a guard? a soldier? ANGELIKA NEVER DESIRED THAT FROM HER. she stared at her as she walked, before lifting the hem of her gown and trailing behind her, bare feet smacking against the stone floor. ‘ your opinions and thoughts matter to me more than anyone. ’ the rest of the world may have been against angelika, but aurora was not. she was the person angelika relied on more than anyone. ‘ i did not turn you to make you a soldier or my guard. but i trust no one more with my life. i view you as nothing more than my creation, MY CHILD. please. do not become so cold to me. ’ her hand reached out, pulling her to a stop as she lifted her free hand to the white daisy at her ear, pulling it and placing in the curled hair of the other. ‘ you are what you wish to be. but i will never view you as anything else but my daughter, MY CREATION, my closest companion. ’ @divinitystained !!

poemsforpersephone:
GIRL WALKS into the ocean / head held high / gaze
focused on the stars / girl drowns / GIRL DROWNS IN THE SURF
the headlines read / they forget to mention how she walked on water
first / how when she sank it was because she let herself fall / saltwater
laugh bubbling.
GIRL WALKS into oncoming traffic / feet tripping
along the cobblestones / toes finding the grooves in the road / girl
breaks / GIRL BREAKS BECAUSE A CAR COULDN’T the headlines
read / they do not talk of how the car never tried to stop and how
the girl opened her arms at the last second / embracing steel.
GIRL WALKS into molten flames / entranced by the lava
glow / sulphur steam beckoning / entwining hands with igneous
rock / girl burns / GIRL BURNS the headlines read but girl doesn’t just
burn / girl ignites / girl with phoenix blood / girl with a broken body
standing tall / girl with waterlogged lungs still aching.
GIRL WALKS / GIRL DROWNS / GIRL BREAKS / GIRL BURNS
but girl does not die.

Vultori is a whispered name that Melanie had gone deaf to for seven decades, until she had stumbled across a pair with plans about destruction and revenge. It left her with dull entertainment, and the wonder if vampires truly were a greater species ––– or if they were no better than the humans they had been turned from. She had left the pair only hours after meeting them, but their words had left a lasting impact. It’s strange to have come across them again, only this time with a third.
❝ Men are fragile, ❞ she whispered with a soft chuckle coming out after. ❝ But they fight for what they believe in. The world wars, the wars before that, the wars since that ––– vampire men, even, participated in them. It’s their pride. ❞
❝ You know, vikings believed it was great honour to die on the battlefield, and would have rather died for something they believed in, than dying from living. Have you ever wondered if perhaps the same belief plagues your husband? Maybe he won’t die today, maybe not tomorrow, but he will die. We all die, and though Odin won’t be taking any of us, perhaps dying sounds better to him if he did so with a fight. But what do I know? ❞ She often expressed herself through deep breaths, even when she still breathed, so her chest rose in a heavy sigh. ❝ I’m still young. I hardly understand men anymore now, than I did when I was human. ❞
‘ THEY’RE NOT FRAGILE. ’ anyone would be consumed with the lust for revenge that her companions had in their hearts if they had lived through the hell that the romanians had. THEIR ENTIRE FAMILY, RIPPED APART AND BURNED, thrones stolen, centuries of work made out to be nothing. angelika never thought any less of them for those thoughts she wanted revenge too. just not the same way they did.
‘ we all will die, yes. maybe we are damned to hell, maybe there is a special place for vampires to go but i would rather live another four thousand years and watch the ENTIRE WORLD turn their backs on the volturi. i want to watch that power be ripped from aro’s slimy, greedy hands. even if that means i will not be the one to take it from him. ’
‘ you’ll learn in time. they’re just as stubborn and idiotic as mortal men, maybe even more. but they have much more passion in this life. ’ they always wish to see everything through to the end. the world would constantly question their decisions, their judgments. but if anyone was going to accomplish anything, it was going to be them.

PALE FINGERS WOVE BRONZE HAIR TOGETHER, red eyes glancing up as the child spoke of her c u r i o u s i t i e s. it was something she always admired about children, they spoke their minds, innocence radiated from them. THEY HAD YET TO BE HARDENED BY THE WORLD, as so many had before them. ‘ those men, myself included, ruled before the ones called the volturi overthrew us. though i respect your parents wishes to keep you from them, ( they have been known to be rather, well BLUNT with no filters ) they are essentially harmless. ’ they knew better then to ever cause harm to a child in angelika’s presence her protectiveness of the girl would grow in time. for renesmee was unique, one of a kind. something worth protecting.
❛ WILL YOU TELL ME ABOUT THEM ? ❜ brown eyes are wide , feet danging off the others’ lap as she kicks them back and forth softly , curiousity etched into young features . ❛ nobody else will but i want to know . who are they ? ❜ / @conqueredqueen

olympicmartyr:
❛ They must listen ⸻ not only no laws have been broken but her mere existence… it’s a BREAKTHROUGH for our kind. Your presence here is PROOF, and for that I thank you. ❜ There was a long SILENT smile in Edward’s face, the gesture enough of a tacit response. Out of all existing words only a little few were good enough to even attempt to describe HIS CHILD, extraordinary was one of them. Looking at the little girl, BLOOD OF HIS BLOOD ⸻ same hair, same face, same expressions, Edward knew there was NO other option but face the Volturi. His thoughts focused on something more pleasant to think about, ❛ Only five months, her growth has been slowing down but it’s still so accelerated. ❜ UNCERTAINTY scared Edward, but this he did not say.
‘ I DO NOT WISH TO PLAY DEVIL’S ADVOCATE, but have you thought of what you will do if they refuse to listen? ’ a pause, a small, soft smile fell across her lips. ‘ no, i think it should be i thanking you. had it not have been for the rumors of that little girl over there, i would have never found my mate, my brother. i have believed vladimir and stefan to be dead for a long time, it was your child, this threat of war with the volturi that brought us back together. ’ for once, it finally felt as though all of her suffering hadn’t been for nothing. SHE HAD HER FAMILY BACK ( or at least, what was left of them. ) ‘ five months. that is...rather incredible. the world has seen nothing like her, perhaps this is simply how they grow? ’ he did not need to speak of his concerns, the maternal side of angelika simply knew they were there. the child was something new, something everyone would be interested in seeing continue in her life. angelika certainly was.

Some people manage to make that transition from child actor to adult actor seamlessly. But I felt that if I spent my whole life on a film set without taking a few years to do something else, all I would ever know about was film sets.
