Sirens are one of my absolutely favourite Mythological Creatures, and for the Longest time I associated quite a bit with them. At least the Darker Side of them. Most people just view them as temptresses however, the specific Norse Mythology of them views them as creatures of great sadness, their song while still extremely tempting is also a lament. A Lament for their lost lives and lovers, as Siren themselves are born from women who take their lives in the ocean or die in grief after their lovers are taken by the sea.
At one time, I wrote a poem called "Spirit of the Sea" It was about a Siren who had lost her love and tried to love countless times afterwards but every time her touch would just turn men cold. It was written during a very dark time in my life, where I was really sad. Unfortunately that poem has been long since lost
