It's been a tough day.

Give me the silent screaming of the night

Wrapped in the warped siren's song

Beckoning me to the dreamless dark

To drown in my Ocean Tears

The waves crash through the walls

The sand seeps through the floor

The air is thick with memory melodies the siren sings to me

I should get it over and done with.

To down in my Ocean Tears

Have I been here all along?

Did I ever leave the sea?

A certain song surfaces – a reprise that my siren does not sing

Don't drown in my Ocean –

Mother isn't proud and she never will be.

I put the bottle down.

Just one more day, if I can stand it.
