Mermaid
MERMAID
Ocean girl I feel you riding
on the waves at night,
flashing in a brilliant spray
of mist and lunar light.
From the deep you've gathered sea shells
in your lily hand
tossed them to the moon like dreams
no one can understand.
Have you been someone I've known?
I guess I'm part of you.
Ocean girl, I'd love you still,
but don't know what I'd do.
Living in the dream you are,
and riding on the sea,
through coral reefs and shipwrecked souls
for our eternity.
Crystal blues and yellow hues
from off the ocean floor
beckon to the wandering
I've always hungered for.
If I loved you once again,
as I've done in the past,
would it be a dream sureal
but one to never last?
Ocean girl, don't tell me now,
I'll never want to know,
where it is you're coming from,
or where we have to go,
take my hand and dive into
uncharted ocean's fate,
and as for what I am right now,
it will have to wait.
