The sirens


Out in the darkness, I see the tails. Swimming closer Shadows turn, into males. I see my reflection, Under the water. Waves of gold, As they clawed her. I see the sirens, As they hold me, Under the waves, Trying to break free. Is it all futile, Will someone save me, Do I let go of, What I cannot forsee. I try to break out. Fight for my life back, They are too strong, Vision fades to black. I am alone here, No one is around, I feel their claws, As I am drowned. I try to look at, The sirens. The sounds, Peirce my ears, My heart pounds. I finally wake up, From this nightmare, No body knows, I just died here.
