Cassandra Will Not Speak Poem by JoJo Hsu

Cassandra Will Not Speak

Rating: 5.0


Cassandra will not speak,
Choosing to stand in silence as looks out across the sea.
The homing birds singing of their return,
But Cassandra will rather listen.

Cassandra did not love Apollo,
And could not reciprocate hiss passion for her.
Like those young man,
Who break promises too early.

Cassandra lets out a laugh,
No one believed what she prophesied.
They all thought she had lost her mind,
But the Trojan horse has already entered.
