A Song of Gold (Inspired by The Plated Prisoner Series)

You cannot cage the tides

The moon will free them

Pull them from their golden sleep

And flood the hush with memory

Hear my call

A siren's song of gold

A lullaby the world tried to hold

Whispers weave

Through golden chains

A siren's hymn in golden veins

A song of gold upon my lips

A melody that the darkness sips

I sing not to be heard

But to be felt beneath the skin

From the heart of the cage

A pulse broke free

A melody rising

Like waves on the sea

With every step forward

The echoes recede

And silence folds

Around the shape of me

A song of gold upon my lips

A melody that the darkness sips

I sing not to be heard

But to be felt beneath the skin

I sing not for mercy

I sing because I can

Because my name is Auren

And I am the gold

That never bowed
