But a mermaid has no tears, and therefore she suffers so much more. You are like the ocean, pretty enough on the surface but dive down into your depths, you'll find beauty most people never see, everyone sees who Annika appears to be, but only a few know the real her. You can only see what she choose to show, there's so much behind this smile...you don't even know, but when the world says "give up" Hope whispers "try one more time Annika"
