Under the waves that roil
Reflecting golden sun rays
I swim among the the coral
Passing my eternal days
The kelp flickers with the tide
The fish dart about and hide
As I swim amongst the algae stones
And past forgotten bones
A shadow crosses overhead
A ship set out to sail
That floats about in the full moon's light
A lovely pearl lit pale
My fins slice the water
As I reach the surface crests
And I sing my mesmerizing melody
That brings the sailors to rest
And so I live below my waves
With only bones of sailors past
Among the phosphorescent coral ridges
Waiting for my day last
But so is my undying curse
With a voice like satin silk
That holds only a poison barb
To exist with only myself
