I was the Goddess and you were a mortal
yet I was the one who followed you
like a supplicant
night after night
I left my bedchamber
& the demiGod in deep slumber on my bed
swathed in the shrouds of darkness
I kept coming to worship you
quotidianly
but it wasn't enough
for you were never satiated
even after reaping all that I possessed
and trying to make an immortal out of you
is now obliterating the light
within my heart's eyes
thence go back to your realm
you can't dwell in mine no longer
& my knees can't kiss the hassock anymore
