Siren
By Woes of a Succubus
Hollow eyes,
Mirror overcast skies,
A mermaid tail,
With shimmering scale,
Parted lips,
Blow cursed kisses to ships,
Uttering haunted
songs,
Beckoning the dammned,
In hypnotized throngs,
Oh
strong youths,
Come to me,
For I
hold truths,
Only I can see,
Lust
courses through thy veins,
Like wild horses fight their
reins,
Starlight eyes,
Voluptuous curves,
Hiding the lies,
The purpose my being serves,
Now don't look back,
For its too late,
The
constraint you lacked,
Will be your fate,
Your
ship is gone far out to sea,
They warned you
not to come to me.
Regard the wise and the old,
Tis' why they live,
And tales be told,
The
sensuous face becomes pale,
And a sharp edge to evr'y
scale,
Enchanting smile warped with fangs,
And
sensuous hair now limply hangs,
You are mine alone
to slay,
Show no mercy to my prey,
Lude
wine,
Turns to bile,
Terror divine,
Lights
my smile,
So beware my song,
And
seductive stare,
Don't listen too long,
Or
approach my lair,
That you may grow old,
And
live to tell,
How you escaped the siren,
And
therefore Hell.
