Artemis the goddess of my nightmares
Voss @combatvoss
You are passionate and strong
You know where your heart belongs
Your virtue
Your kindness
You are a protector
a hunter
To decry any less would just be too wrong
As a child you had courage
A will stronger than steel
Apollo himself sees you a sibling
You've won the hearts of so many
Yet yours cannot be revealed
It's a pain really how that makes me feel
Even an Adonis cannot boast himself to you
And a man who makes attempt
to steal your purity
shall find his manhood removed
And his light dashed so very far
For you are a virgin goddess
And anyone who catches your heart
finds themselves among the stars
I can never love a woman like you
who rebukes any advance
spurns affection
honors chastity
insists on dominance
and attempts the life of any man
who would see her an equal
I cannot love you Artemis
For you are a Goddess
And I seek a partner to love
Not a superior to worship

Is this a poem about criticising religion or about the futility of chasing a girl out of your league? Actually it could literally just be about the Greek goddess Artemis. Funny thing about literature, the meaning is in the eye of the beholder.
It was very nice poem and well constructed, I like it. Well done.
