Siren

Your voice is a bewitching sound.

I follow you. I leave the shore.

I’m in too deep and still want more.

The waves come crashing all around.

The sirens sing entrancing lore.

You want me here forevermore.

You pull me in. You pull me down.       

                

Each step I take, you take in turn.

Chase the dark and shadows chase you.

There is no light that passes through.

Once you’re too far you can’t return.

I sense the fear but love the view.

It’s all a lie but feels so true.

I follow you. I never learn.

 

On the Road

They said you’re too old to be immature.

They said you’re too young to know your own mind.

You picked up the nearest travel brochure.

You packed your things and left them all behind.

You wanted a reason to run away,

And I won’t say you have to settle down.

It’d be nice if you could visit someday.

That doesn’t mean you have to stick around.

You move so much that you never unpack.

You say you prefer being left alone.

You’re free, and there’s no one to hold you back,

But life’s more fun when you’re not on your own.
