Hestia

Crowned by flames

Firstborn of the Titans

Bestow your grace on my song

You who tend the hearth

Warm my freezing heart

pursued by the gods

You swore to remain a maiden

You preside over the sacrifice

Will you accept my offering?

libation of wine

First and last

Pour your sweet wine

unto my cold lips

In a sweet kiss Divine

Soft oil dripping from your golden locks

To stoke my flames

My desire

Sweet Hestia,

You who tend the fires in my heart

Come and dwell in my temple

Be my glorious goddess

I will worship you forever

Fires crackling between your fingers

Had scorched my heart

I pine for every kiss

Every touch

Our bodies entwined

Your flames coursing through my veins

Your love is my every heart beat

In every breath

I have walked this earth

Deathless

Forlorn

I will be the sacrifice you desire

Instead of the sacred wine

I will pour my blood

Until you are satisfied

Until you are maiden no more

Until the hearth in my heart

Is your eternal flame

Maxwell O'Reilly
