Mermaid's Lair

The Abyss

Mermaid's Lair

Stop. Back up. Go deeper. Deeper than you feel comfortable with. Feel it. Take it all in. Let it overwhelm you. What do you see? How do you feel? Are you afraid? You should be. At least a little bit. Can you go further? Will you come with me? Or are you holding back? I want to feel it even if it terrifies me. I want to be jolted. I want to explode into a billion pieces of light falling into darkness. I want to be engulfed by it, and breathe it into you. All of you. Who am I? Who are you? Are you ready to look into my darkness to see? This is what you must do if you really want her love. You think of her as if she is only good. She’s a lot darker than you give it credit for. As high as you rise, is as low as you will fall into her depths. She is the master of manipulation and seduction. She is in me, and I am in her. I find myself swimming in her Sea of Darkness. It’s absolutely beautiful. The light defines the dark down here, but it’s calm, eerie, and almost addictive. I could get used to it down here. Floating through this sullen yet sensual abyss. There is a hint of light in the distance, but only enough to silhouette the curves of my body fading into yours. Still dark enough to hide what I don’t want you to see. What I don’t want to see. This Sea of darkness caresses my vulnerability. I am wide open. Like a book for you to read. Will you read it to me? Or must I read your mind as you read my every inch? The look on your face says it all.
