A dramatic monologue from a Submarine Captain

I'm in this long metal tube, alone in the deep.

Searching for something, but I can't really see.

I hear a noise, it sounds like a scream.

I gaze out the window, a Siren I spot.

She points to the hatch, I know that I shouldn't.

But her song is so beautiful, she entrances me.

I reach for the latch, I'm twisting the bar.

Shes nodding her head, she's captivating me.

I can't stop my hands, they're working furiously.

My brain is not working, I'm fighting her spell.

The next thing i know I'm on the ground.

My head is pounding, things scattered around.

Above me, the hatch is locked shut.

I look out the window, the siren is gone.
