Cassandra

The curse of Apollo
Disguised as a gift,
Enlightened Cassandra
Yet cast her adrift…

On the waves of despair
In an ocean of tears,
As her turbulent heart
Anchors her fears…

She sees beyond
What is now known,
Yet ill-received;
So left alone…

With much to give
Her vision spans
Decades to come
In every land…

Immersed in her grief
She stands alone,
A solitary figure
Far from home…
