[cymry]

You will die and be still,
never shall be memory left of you
after this, nor regret when you are gone.
You have not touched the flowers
of the Muses, and thus,
shadowy still in the domain of Death,
you must drift with a ghost's fluttering wings,
one of the darkened dead.
~ Sappho

"You will die and be still,"

It was used as the cover art/photo for a book called 'The Love Artist' by Jane Alison, which you may or may not have already known, but which, come to think of you might enjoy about Ovid and Medea.
