I am nervous
wading into the still,calm waters that are too calm
on this starry night,
moving gently in the breeze beckoning me near
these waters will betray me with its treachery
telling me its safe, as it sways gently
being the home to lots of things that could **** me

I am nervous
but I am hip deep with the waters
and they are still calm, daring me to come closer
keep wading, keep going, your almost near
and then I hear it
the song that kills thousands before me
telling me it's ok, just let go and come to me

Before I realize it
I am neck deep in,and can no longer feel the bottom of the shore
yet I cannot resist the urge and she sings another ballad
telling me to swim closer and be calm
I obey.
swimming towards the crimson horizon
that is in the process of transforming to dawn
then I see her,on a jagged rock, the beautiful woman who calls out to me
singing me to my death, towards her
and when she giggles her giggle is melodic in my ears
making me happy that I had followed
She then jumps off the rock, and I know she is swimming to claim me
As she pulls me down and swims with me to the deepest depths
I also now know, there is no saving me
