Shadows and Squids

Who found me in the shadows where I was hiding in dark seas?

cowardly of hiding in the depths that are thought to be courage was my  disease ,

My intention was to hide with the shadows spewing from this squid

Fake people who are ravenous, I'm tired of your squint.

what was that?

the sun's lights do not reach that deep.

even it reach, I was hiding in the shadow of the squid.

is this a witch squint?

no, oh my god it's a mermaid...

Will she be able to pull me out of the shadows?

who knows?...
