The sound of a siren’s song,
Echoes in the dark of the night,
Silent and soothing flowing in perfect harmony,
Reaching out to the lone and crying.
Silent notes floating in the air,
Taking flight to those who will it,
Numbing their hearts as lifeless dolls,
Entrapping every essence of they’re suffering souls.
There she stands,
Ready to steal your soul,
Be wary for she is not the beauty of the night,
Within lies of the eyes she confide.
Illusions will darken your mind,
Lies in her beauty she manipulates,
Bending and twisting hearts that cry,
Embracing pleasure as they slowly die.
Be fooled not by false beauty,
For if the will is inside there is a way,
Find the light that will fight,
Use the eyes of truth to see which is wrong and right.
If one’s heart is true and just,
There is always hope in the darkest hour,
Defy her lies and look beyond beauty,
There you will see her true identity.
Do not be cruel,
But to instead listen with the heart,
She too cries in despair,
Her heart is broken beyond all repair.
Another victim of failed love,
Still searching and waiting,
As the legends and the folklore,
She await his return on the ocean shore.
Never moving or aging,
Deprived from life and time,
Immortalized by the love that dwells within her,
There she waits patiently forever.

Description:
This is my first time submitting a poem on gaia.
This poem is basically about the maiden of the sea, 'The Siren'. I've been fascinated with legendary and mythical creatures since I was very young. The reason for me submitting this poem on gaia is because I want to see what others think of my work and not just myself.
I value criticism so please, don't be afraid to share any.
It helps me to improve.
Enjoy. - Date: 01/11/2009

just by reading the first 4 lines i knew that you didn't just think of the words used in this deep heart touching poem. but you felt it and being able to use feeling and not just words that sound good. is the key to make beautiful poems like this.

- I like it only thing I would suggest is to give it a different title. Cuz in the first line when you read "the sound of the siren's song" Its like repeating you know? And i like a little mystery in the title. I'm just suggesting but the poem is great and you are very good.
