Dream of a Mermaid

Going on land with legs and heels

Be with humans in the world with heal

See the sunrise and evening sky shade

Is just a dream to me, a mermaid

 

Ancestors advice, no affair with human

To all the mermaids in the deep ocean

I wish I could go without a tail

As little mermaid in the fairytale

 

All with fish, corals and weed

Sometimes caught by sharks so speed

Marine life is boring now

Waiting to be on land, no matter how

 

I've heard humans say

Mermaid hair is gold not gray

As a cloud floating in the water

But I wish to fly to real clouds later

 

They say that my tail is magical

With golden dust can't explain lyrical

Swimming underwater with dolphin friends

But why can't I be with human friends
