Seduction of the Sea

Airbuds are my stepping stones
As they sing in dying tones
Of all the things I've yet to see
in life, in love--my ecstasy

And so I stand with dampened wings
and join the song that silence sings
For though I know that I'm alone
The empty feeling hasn't grown

My plastic smiles bid me wait
My heart demands I ward off fate
And slipping down and into me
I twist inside, seduce the sea

I love it's cool elaborate gown
Know it's design or rather drown
In it's waters do I die
Enveloped in a blue-green sky
