The Last Mermaid

~ 11 ~

Hi, so after many years you're back, or are you

How does it feel to swim between two shores?

This is opposite of what they say, it's too good to be true or is it

Trying to open mind to a heart that feels too close

Hi, so how are you doing? I'm trying to find the right words to say, but every time I reach towards the text box, I think I've made my hopes too high again

I desperately want you to say you like me back, but one moment from this can ruin it and send you diving back in the water, mysteriously disappearing

It's not healthy to want someone so much

You were a merman that made love to me along the shore

Hey, give me a chance please I swear I can be a cute girl like Jackie Kennedy - just look at my good side

I swear I'll be the right mix of cute and crazy

Please text back, hey were are you going

Are you going, no, you're coming back

Caught and turned upside down in a pale of emotions

You're my good secret they tell me to stay away from

I say to them, "You can't know a heroin addiction if you've never tried it"

The tsunami swirl as you suck me under

I love you, so wouldn't you just try to love me?

Can it be natural?

Can earth intermix with water?

Oh no, you're leaving again

You're leaving

You're swimming away

I'm still waiting for you

Drowning to the bottom 

They don't know what it's like to

Love someone after they're gone

You thought I would just cave didn't you

But I may cave, please, oh god don't leave without me

I'm not that lonely

Can't do this

Let me love you

You're disappearing beneath the waves

Oh no

And just like this

It's hard to love you and breathe at the same time

When I'm still learning to love myself

It's like riding a bike

You can't hold onto

And at every swerve, I see your face and name

I hold onto love harder than they wish of a woman

But stay with me a minute

Stay, with, me

Teach me to breathe

I swear I'll make it better than you imagine

And when I die, please write my name across the stars

The girl who wanted to love you

Who waited by the shore for you

Awaiting your return
