Tale of a mermaid (Sonnet) by sanity
How long I have wished that I could return To the briny depths that was once my home Although I knew all my bridges I'd burn That chance I took, leaving behind that foam It was alas for my obsessive heart That I did choose this impassable path But now my love has preferred to depart I must now endure my family's wrath I can hear them laughing, chanting, taunting Swimming after me, that night long ago Forever hearing, their words just haunting But I didn't care, my heart was aglow Now all I do is sit here and wonder I miss my life in the wet blue yonder
