Siren

I am a myth, a legend, a fairy tale,
a siren calling out above clear waters,
pulling, drowning, drawing in the
eyes of men and women, entrapping,
the twinkle in my eyes, mesmerize,
their screams, their tries to break free...

I laugh, half wishing, half hoping,
that one day they'll catch me, hatch me,
peel back my flowering hips,
the petals, the stamen, the nectar,
my glimmering eyes, still, the sighs,
mesmerize, mine to theirs,

catch me if you dare
satisfy my stare
catch me with care
where i wear moonbeams
where i am breathless

the siren, a wave caught upon the sand,
as hopeful as sailors are to capture me,
i am that they would succeed

my greed, my lusty lips, lashes,
lascivious stares, glares,

catch me if you dare
satisfy my stare
catch me with care
where I cry heaven
where I can breathe again

their screams their tries to break free
from my eyes, a gaze, the lies, mesmerize...
