The Mer-Girl And She

She wanders to the water Tears almost pouring down her cheeks Down into the water She dreams Yearning For the ability To finally breathe Wishing for The calming Soothing Sounds of the waves To swallow her Yearning For the blanket Of water to cover her As she strips down dropping Her clothes to the ground She leans over the edge And sees Her reflection And another's Not quite human Staring up at her With turquoise skin And sea-green eyes Smiling pleasantly The girl dips her hand Into the Lagoon below And the mysterious girl From the blue Lifts her hand up too Wrapping her fingers around The girls wrist Whispering In a voice Oh so mesmerizing "Come join me my dear In this Beautiful Lagoon For your eyes Are full of pain And so beautifully blue" And The human girl whispered Oh So Soft "Okay" And gently Let the Mer-Girl Pulled her into the deep There she could breathe Her worrisome life Left up top Her new life Began In that watery blue She smiled too No longer needing to cry Or fake a smile to get by And the Mer-Girl  so dear Wrapped her arms Around the human Whispering "Stay with me And you will see The world in a different way Taste my lips With the Forbidden kiss And together we will be trapped In an underwater world" "In which pain ceases to exist A world of love And Bliss Where happiness is a deep Abyss And joy is a must" "Join us my dear For we were once like you Lost And Sad" "Secretly Wanting The Pain to End And sleep to begin Now We are free "Just a kiss And you will see How happy You are truly Meant to be" And as she spoke The human girl Listened intently Thinking "What do I have to lose Heavenly this sounds Hopeful I feel " And as she thought The Mer-Girl hoped She would say yes And place a kiss Upon her lips Also worried she was too For the human Had to pass a test In which she couldn't stay Or explain In any way While the human Still lost in thought The lovely Mer-Girl Released a tear Turning into a lovely Sphere That floated to her Clear And beautiful Was it The human Looked in shock And the Mer-Girl Placed it into her hand Kissing it The Mer-Girl Gazed into the humans eyes And she saw The human did Want to try And survive In this beautiful Abyss So the human Leaned  towards The Mer-Girl And gently Their lips touched The Mer-Girl Clasped the humans hand Causing the Sphere of a tear To snap In half Leaking And with a gasp The human Stiffened And sucked in a breath And the Mer-Girl Saw Her skin turn a beautiful blue And her eyes shifted To turquoise Her ears Became pointed Her limbs Flowing And long Till the legs fused together And the human now belonged. Skin bare Yet feeling free She swam around Her Mer Girl So sweet Locking hands And pressing lips together Yet again Sparks surrounded them And the underwater Abyss grew Happiness Was what the once-human girl felt Love bloomed In her chest And her Mer Girl Whispered her name through her beautiful lips "I am Sirena" "And I am Angelica" the once human girl said "Angel" Sirena said "Is what you are here And forever We will stay" "You and me Day upon day Night upon night" "Happiness to follow us Wherever we go" "Welcome to your heaven Angel Dear. I cannot wait To spend forever here" And with the waves They danced Smiling And laughing Caressing And kissing An Angel had found her Siren And a Siren her Angel With whispered words They spread their love And forever Stays Humming Lovely tunes Laughter Heavenly Touches No longer forbidden But loved And together they stay Dancing away Singing everyday Fingers intertwined Two Mer-Folk One with eyes of turquoise The others Seaweed green Causing the beautiful Colors in the Lagoon Day after day Flowers bloom around them Up on the surface the flowers stay But Sirena knew Angelica gave up her life In that gorgeous lagoon Just as she did Years ago Waiting for love so true And finally They are at peace Because sometimes An ending Is just a beginning A chance to start new And be happy Through and through So there they dance As more broken girls come Starting fresh In that lagoon Of forever peace Heaven Is what they call it And happiness Is what they find So come with me To this lagoon Let you and I start anew...
