Psyche You did not marry a monster What kind of soul shows such kindness Such understanding Such love Psyche You would listen to your sisters Who had grown green with envy And red with jealousy And black with deceit
Psyche Your lover Is none other That that most beautiful of the gods He that men call Eros
Psyche Why would you have to prove? With your knife and lantern in hand Not knowing what you had Or what you would lose Psyche These test you have to pass Merely ways to prove your faith You always had Your guilded fate
Drink deep the sweet nectar of ambrosia And live forever
Psyche Your lover Is none other That that most beautiful of the gods He that men call Eros
