Did Narcissus see me When looking at the lake? Did he fall in love With my reflection in the water? And when the lake spoke to him Did he hear my voice? Or was Narcissus too focused On my beautiful eyes? I am certain it was me. Who else could it be? It is me he couldn't bear to live without When he let the water take him. It is me who grew right beside that lake Hearing his cries for eternity. Who's there?
