In calm or stormy weather…”

Hades gates
Cerberus my haunted name
One head in the past
One in the present waits
One in the future looks
and doesn't hesitate

Hark! Hear her haunting melody.
Moonlight serenade of lost love.
Wandering through the forest
In an eternal loop.
Whispered cries of pain.
Always searching
For his love.
Where is
He?
