Your lagoon orbs,
flicker with jaded emeralds,
swallowing me beneath
their sapphire waves.
What once promised me
much has led me to these
abandoned ruins, and
long forgotten shores.
A drifted siren, trapped
between the fleeting seasons
haunting these oceans
in search for Atlantis
within the bones of ships.
Wasted by the fragrance
of your sailed freedom
and plump, luscious
lips rouged by red wine.
I waited for you to
anchor me to this life, not
to sink, to drag down
with me into the depths
of these undercurrents.
