Sweet surrender beckons.
A Siren song floats from my lips
Thrice denied the ache arises
The song is swallowed with regret
And to the Shadow I return
Familiar darkness calls.
The depths and I embrace once more
Languid motion through the water
Caressing and caressed again
Alone the journey marches on
Fairy kingdoms on display.
Life in riots on the reef
Diverse spectrum all around
Bold and timid, bright and gray
Web of niches interwoven
Flora, fauna, symbiosis
All arrangements make the scene
Bio-chemo-geologic
And every discipline between
Human history preservation.
From the gloom a tragic treasure
Once afloat on sea or sky
At once eerie and compelling
Tell the tale of your demise
Brief encounter ends.
Tortured I release the rapture
Follow bubbles toward the light
Breaking surface inhalation
Reality intrudes again.
Sweet surrender beckons.
