“Golden Gates” (Song)
By Athena Stairs, October 25, 2025
I remember you from Elden days
As a whisper upon the wind
When love was just a shadow
In a world submerged in sin
And everywhere I’d follow
Led to high cliffs or dead ends
No money begged nor borrowed
Could erase our souls as kin
And if I were to tell you
We were someday meant to be
Would it be enough to hold you
Now we’ve found this reality?
My light it’s always been you
We have followed in its wake
The purest of intentions
Our blood never forsakes
Yet I who’ve come before you
Knows youth that still debates
How much longer when so close
Before our keys open the gate?
And instinct burns the scriptures
Where the wicked stole our fate?
For lifetimes we have witnessed
From afar the promised land
In each other’s eyes in passing
Swore an oath to hold your hand
Come to me now
Come home at last
It’s time we feast
On love’s repast
And all the world
Will know at last
What it feels like
To be truly blessed
Come revel with me
Breathe in the scent
Of Eden’s garden
No longer Hellbent
Children of God
As our descent
No longer cast
Far to wander
Come meet me
At the alter
Where our hearts
Spring wings anew
I know you
I know you
I know you
It’s true
I know you
I love you
Free at last
Me and you

Pure Hearts
It has always been said that dark and light can find a true balance.
The “They” Question
“How to believe in love as real or worthy?
It doesn’t need society’s approval to be valid – only consent between two mature people.”
A Beautiful Violence
“Now there goes a man of beauty and grace in commitment.”
Wrath
“And no amount of love will keep it around
If we don’t choose it
And I don’t know what’s got its teeth in me
But I’m about to bite back in anger
No amount of self-sought fury
Will bring back the glory of innocence”

(Sleep Token lyrics from “Take Me Back To Eden”)
Not This Time

Gods, be at last generous and kind to him.”
One Could Say

Past Loves
Though they’d deeply hurt her, she couldn’t really hate them – for ultimately, they just did what men often do.
(Now We Are Free / Honor Him – Hans Zimmer Synthesia Piano Tutorial by Jason Fervento)
There Go I
Of all triumphs
In all of the lands
A man’s soul reclaimed
When he took his stand
Such wonder, such beauty the
Mundane cannot comprehend
But I who have lived lifetimes
Live for this name’s command
If We Committed
“There often seem to be forces conspiring against love.
Maybe if we kept trying equally, if not more so, love would overcome, afterall.”
(Eternity – David Tolk)
Embodiment
This is why the Goddess Herself
Had not married god nor mortal
For she had loved and lost
Bearing griefs of betrayal
But she did not become cynical
Although men have felt her Ire
No – instead she searched in scriptures
Heard in winds the Holy Ghost singing
Planted seeds for Trees of Tomorrow
Helping others find North in sorrow
She resigned her heart to solitary solace
Delighting in life’s colours and textures
Spun interwoven silk stories with spiders
Cajoled with Fates to ease human troubles
Only dreaming in innermost sanctum
Somehow a pure heart would awaken
Who’d be strong and wise enough to see
How the world was made for our eternity
And would love her as she would love He
While the Earth traveled peaceful galaxies
I Want
“Nothing less in relationship.”
Soul Bonding
“Not many men can say Forever – and mean it.”

Living Myth
“We all are these stories, unfolding.
What will be yours in its glory?”
We Belong Together
Love’s Redemption
(Now We Are Free – Jhonatan Rodrigues)
The Prophecy
So long have I waited
With yearning desire
Keeping hope’s eyes
Watching for signals
At last drawing near
Redemption is clear
Love’s honor is won
By heralding angels
In The Beginning
There was The Word
Which they say was Light
But before this there was Love
That gave reason for Light to exist

Reinforcements
Was it you Goddess who
Advocated on my behalf?
Do you keep vigil over your
Namesakes’ hearts’ desires?
Thank you for leveraging
On my behalf for the one
I had championed above all else
Despite Trixter’s rigged outcome
May I request boon for another?
Please protect my chosen lover

Sigma B.S.

Why Athena Did Not Marry
Her wisdom and talent for strategy likely assessed the human and godly behavioral extremes around her and calculated there being extremely low odds of her succeeding in relationship with any one of them!
