Epimetheus's Regret

In ancient lands, where shadows play,
Epimetheus feels, regret's sway.
With eyes so sad, and spirit torn,
He faces fate, forever worn.
Through whispers soft, and silent sighs,
In Epimetheus's soul, the regret lies.
With every step, his sorrow grows,
In every choice, his anguish shows.

Epimetheus's Hope

In final breath, his truth revealed,
Epimetheus's heart, forever healed.
With hope found, and spirit bright,
He faces darkness, with pure light.
Through trials long, and regrets vast,
In Epimetheus's strength, they hold fast.
With every tear, and whispered word,
In Epimetheus's name, their hope is heard.

Epimetheus's heart, a hesitant light.
With wisdom's loss and foresight's wane,
In every tale, he bears the shame.

In every heart, his legend grew.
In every tale of ancient lore,

Epimetheus's heart, a wisdom feigned.
The afterthought's guiding grace,
In every heart, he finds a place.
