Mermaid

Fairy tales lie.

Mermaids don't leave the waters for princes.
Neither they sing to lure men and feast over their flash.

They simply miss the sun.
And the moon.

As every fallen star that hasn't died.

They just faded for a while.

Yet faith brings out the spark.
Thank you, for pulling me out to the surface.
For believing in magic.
In mermaids.

Not being afraid to be completely bonkers.
