Another Poem - The Siren

The Siren

The alluring Siren charmed him,
Her black hair and calm voice.
He'd known her long before this moment,
But only now he had the choice.

He would have loved to get lost in her world,
Her thoughts, her touch, her song,
He knew he couldn't get to close,
Yet, the distance from home was so long...

He creaps a little closer, closer still,
Moving forward in a delirium,
But he doesn't want to break what he's got,
To lose his equilibrium.

She begins to dance, he's in a trance,
His heart suddenly beating faster,
His emotions scream out his desire,
But his mind says he's the master.

He reminds himself of what he's got,
The woman he left behind,
The beautiful woman he calls his wife,
the woman who reads his mind.

His desire tells him to go for the siren.
His mind can't choose, confused.
His heart tell him not to risk it,
What he has is to precious to lose.

He sees the Siren's seduction,
He losing the will to fight it.
He knows that if he give in,
He'll only give love unrequited.
