Emily's Poem #8 - "Sirens"

I hear your voice from the murky depths below,
With the voice of an angel, if angels lived underwater,
But angels do not exist, so I must ask:
Who are you?
I tremble as the water ripples around me,
You are as mysterious as a the night,
But the night cannot swim through water, so I must ask:
Where are you?
I am smitten as you emerge to the surface,
Your eyes alone could bring a dead man back to life,
But you are not a sorceress, so I must ask:
What are you?
I will follow you wherever you wish,
Regardless if you are not an angel, the night, nor a sorceress,
My kiss is a promise to follow you forever and ever,
Even now as you pull my body underwater.
