ThIs poem is not from Dark Road, but comes from a place that inspires me. Perhaps today I longed for Baja waves and my besties and the lyricism of Spanish.

 

SIRENA

Sirena dreams sea and stone

Wanderer, heart alone

Sings refrain of ocean tides

Time space divides

Righted wrongs, wronged rights

Questions waves incite

Duality caught between

Tender smile, cruel screams

Bound by choice, where none exists

Imagined sorrow’s kiss

Pearl born from the mundane

Stares upon reflection changed

 

Sirena sueña mar y piedra

Vagabundo, solo corazón

Canta estribillo de mareas oceánicas

El tiempo se divide

Malos derechos, derechos injuriados

Preguntas que incitan las ondas

Dualidad atrapada entre

Sonrisa tierna, gritos crueles

Limitado por elección, donde no exista

El beso del dolor imaginado

Perla nacida de lo mundano

Miradas fijas sobre reflexión cambiadas
