Siren's Song

Siren's Stare by sanguisGelidus

I am called Monster

Murderess

but I am no different than anyone or

anything else

Mortal women bleed,

 breed
I swim

I sing

Do you blame the songbird

for the song?

It is his Nature

Time was, I had feathers too

A beautiful gown of feathers,stolen
for another's crown

But my voice is mine

I sing my Nature

Do you blame the flame

when the moth burns?

Do you blame the spider

for the sticky web?

Yet you blame my song

Blame me

Blame my Nature

for Man's weakness

If you cannot be

in the presence of sublime beauty

without being destroyed

I am not the one

to blame.
