“Come away with me into the deep, my dear” Sang the Sea, low and sweet. Like a lullaby, like butterflies I peered into the well “Come away across the water, I can show you magnificent things” Sighed the Sea, long and mournful. Like a breeze, a gentle caress I gazed out to the horizon “Follow me down, my dear, come see me on the ocean floor” Called the Sea, tempting and sensual Like a lover’s kiss, a windswept tide I sank deeper, and deeper still “Let me show you death, my dear” Whispered the Sea, faint and fading Like a drowning girl, like a dying flame I watched as my final breath left my lungs

Sea, Skies, and Unjust Lies
“Come away with me into the deep, my dear” Sang the Sea, low and sweet. Like a lullaby, like butterflies I peered into the well “Come away across the water, I can show you magnificent things” Sighed the Sea, long and mournful. Like a breeze, a gentle caress I gazed out to the horizon “Follow me down, my dear, come see me on the ocean floor” Called the Sea, tempting and sensual Like a lover’s kiss, a windswept tide I sank deeper, and deeper still “Let me show you death, my dear” Whispered the Sea, faint and fading Like a drowning girl, like a dying flame I watched as my final breath left my lungs
