The Sad Siren Song
She wore necklaces of coral, strings of pearls embracing her body, glinting back at the broken sunlight scattered across the sea floor. Her glassy eyes gazed up, somewhat worried, somewhat mournful, longing to leap above the waves, to sing that chorus of birds passing by. Longing for her voice to take flight, uninterrupted by ships sailing by. She wasn't born a killer; just...

what is a mermaid?

Premium Member A Mermaid can Dream
The brunette smile withdrew into her dream world, as goldenrod sun melted away in storm. The petrichor-scented parasol thus twirled, aft’ windswept fall of sailor, in uniform, upon her sand, carried on where lightning hurled. This seaman-salt, seasoned with charm, keeps her warm.

The Mermaid
Hearing sounds he understands my mermaid sings for he spoken lines in streams of time she floats the waves and dance the days all for he, just for he.
