A song called Weaving Time | Penelope’s Song
I wanted more from Penelope’s side of things, her struggles waiting for Odysseus to return home. Imagine waiting that long, not knowing if your love would even return.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do :)
Inspired by EPIC the musical, created by Jorge Rivera-Herrans. I look forward to more from him in the future. And not to mention of course, the original Homer’s Odyssey.

Lyrics:
Twenty years... my love, since you sailed away
Ithaca’s shores grow colder each day
Our son, Telemachus, grows strong and tall
While suitors circle like vultures in our hall
I weave by day and unravel by night
My loom, my shield, my silent fight
Odysseus, my heart, where do you roam?
Our son and I, we’re keeping your home
Telemachus, my boy, now a man
Searching for a father he barely can
Remember, yet his spirit burns bright
Your legacy, my love, he’ll set right
They pressure me to choose, to wed anew
But my heart knows only one is true
So I’ll keep weaving this endless shroud
My faith in you remains unbowed
I weave by day and unravel by night
My loom, my shield, my silent fight
Odysseus, my heart, where do you roam?
Our son and I, we’re keeping your home
Whispers of your death I refuse to hear
Though doubt creeps in with each passing year
Are you held captive on distant shores?
Or have you found new loves to explore?
Yet still I wait, for that’s who I am
I will stay faithful, doing what I can
To hold our world together by a thread
Until you return, or until I’m dead
My love, come home, if you’re still alive
Our son is waiting, and so am I
