Description She sinks beneath a darkling wave

When no one sees the boat slip out.
The tattered sails that flay about
Drag her to a watery grave

And now she roams the shores near home,
Gathering stars and souls as slaves
Taunting the sailors hearts with doubts

She sinks beneath a darkling wave

Well, you already have quite a few 'treats' (faves) for this particular 'trick.' Hope you keep up with yourself...
