Can you hear that?

That tempting call in the distance?

The sweet, yet bitter tune,

Seducing even the strongest of men,

Soft in calling, harsh in responce.

And I fell victim to it.

I kept fighting, but I lost.

I tell it to go away,

But it doesnt listen.

I shout, 'Leave me alone!'

Yet it stays.

But wait, whats this?

That warm, soothing melody.

A birds uplifting song,

With a touch of a mothers lulaby.

It pulls me out of the trap,

And heals me.
