Ode to Aphrodite - Sappho

Immortal Aphrodite on your golden throne,
daughter of Zeus, wile-weaver, I beg you,
don't crush my spirit, queen,
with anguish and pain:

but come here, if ever before,
hearing my cries from far away,
you left your father's golden house
and came here

with your chariot yoked, and beautiful
quick-winged birds led you over the dark earth,
fluttering their fast wings down from heaven
through midair.

Soon they arrived, and you, blessed one,
with a smile on your immortal face,
asked me what had happened now and
why I had called you

and what I wanted more than anything to happen
in my crazy heart. "Whom should I persuade now
to love you? Who, oh Sappho, is
doing you wrong?

For if she runs now, soon she'll follow,
and if she won't accept gifts, soon she'll give them,
and if she doesn't love you now, soon her heart will
burn, although reluctantly."

Come to me now, too, and free me from cruel
cares, and do what my heart longs to
see done, and you yourself
be my ally.

A/N

Hello! If you're reading this, thank you so much! This will probably be the only Author's Note in the story because, to be honest, it's not really my style to write a bunch of A/Ns.

1) This story does include descriptions of death and violence. It also includes swearing, and I'm planning on including mature content, but I don't know if I'll chicken out or not on writing it lol. There are trigger warnings in the description of the story, so I hope you either read those or you are reading it here. Stay safe!

2) This is a fanfiction about Technoblade the character. In no way am I attempting to sexualize a real person or make the real person uncomfortable.

3) Currently I have 38 chapters planned out for this story... it's gonna get kinda long. This fic does have plot in it, so be warned that although it does have a lot of fluff (and a little planned smut), there will be some kinda serious stuff in it. I try to make my writing a little funny, but it's more my style to go a more serious route.

4) Please leave comments/vote if you feel like it! It's the best way to support my writing, and I really appreciate it!

Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy!

TLDR:

Thanks for reading!

1) TW: violence, death, swearing, possible mature content

2) This is about Technoblade the character, not the real person!

3) Story will have mixture of plot and fluff (38 chapters).

4) Reminder: Vote/Comment if you want to!
