siren song

siren song

A Poem by Caitlynn Cusick

                        silent sleeping, silent dreaming                     

                        twisting through your helpless mind,

                         a song appears, never ceasing

                        a little too late, she has you in binds.

 

                        a deadly game, she makes you play,

                        you'll think you love her, only its not true,

                         you'll worship her name, do as she say

                        her siren song did this to you.

 

                          she'll leave you wanting more,     

                              the closer to your doom,

                           and when you say you love her,

                            you'll meet your watery tomb

 

                        to her all this is just a silly game,

                        you were just a pawn in her siren love game

You have taken the greek myth story of the Siren and ran with it in this work - I love it - Also what stands out to me is how this could be interpreted as symbolism of today's woman who put men "under a spell" and lead them to their doom (marriage) LOL - I digress, but at any rate this was a wonderful poem, thank you for sharing!

As I read this I thought of the Odysessy (sorry for spelling) I liked how you played off one of the Greek creatures from mythology nice work. Its surrounds the poem very well. I hope to see more works like this in the future.
