A Siren's LamentA Poem by Ethan RichardsA prelude to my original instrumental of the same name.
I've been known to wreck ships; both the friend and relation variety.
My sirens call echoes to you quietly. You were my favorite conquest I must admit. You were the soul I wanted when the lanterns are lit. I've been known to steal souls; dragging them down to depths they can't handle. My sirens way of living makes me quite the vandal. I was one moment away from my last retreat. I was one love away from leaving the sea. I've been known to love too hard; or maybe it's just a rouse. My siren's song is but a tool to use. You were the message in the bottle I sent. You are the purpose for this siren's lament. It's as haunting a wail as any you've ever heard. To hear the siren's silence as he cannot find the words.
