Living near the ocean should inspire happiness, remaining caged in my bedroom, I hear the ocean call my name.
A siren draped in golden satin with red lips, she combs my hair for awhile. Moves her hips to an old crooner's song, that plays in my mind- the sun is so full of ****, so full of lies.
Telling me, "I'm gonna be fine." Why's it always in my eyes? Everything’s just "fine" for the sun, loved by everyone.
She is mocked by its presence, she does what you wanna do. Sings a solid hymn with the understanding in life, nobody wins.
The siren kissed my hand while, taking pins out of her hair. She unfurls the waves of an ocean- revealing a black case with red felt in her arms.
And she sang, "The sun will come, I will melt."
Red felt held two ethereal stones.
"Sweet sadness cannot be escaped, you are not fine, this was only ever fate"
I've tied the stones around my ankles, the brush is in my hand. I feel the coolness of her hair in my palms, my hands wince from the pressure upon my face.
The sun is just a lesson never learned. Feel the sadness lift, before I can rush ashore, it's too late.
"Come sweet sadness cannot be helped, you are not fine, this was only ever fate."
