† Legendary

Feeling the Earth shift as the city breathed her last,
I was drowned in the deluge of Neptune’s wrath.
In cerulean fury, I gasped for air but heard nothing more
than the song of the sirens.
Lost in the aftermath of underwater destruction,
dying to the serene grace of static down below,
the abyss never looked so beautiful.
Someday, I want to awaken from this dream
and swim with the resurrected coelacanths,
make love to the women that fell from grace
along with the lost city of Atlantis.
Someday, I’ll kiss the sunlight that faded from my view
and I’ll escape from this darkness,
this frigid grave in the depths of this sea.

Think of me, my love back on land,
if ever the waves sing to you and you’re suddenly not alone.
Hold my hand when the whitewash enfolds your soul.
Cherish me as the downpour renews your faith,
because though I may be gone,
though these underwater ruins are where I shall remain,
I promise to you
that Atlantis will surely rise again.
