The Way I Sea Areal Ariel


Born in a sea of mystery

Her innocence overwhelming, nobody had a clue of her destiny

Rebellious, loving, kind, kind and curious, caring and oblivious

She swore the sea would be bluer on the other side

But her stride made her slip and slide

She ignored the pleading and the unknown dared her with danger and sparks flied like flame to a paper

In the literal sense I mean that

The feelings within her returned over and over like a gnat

She never worried about the things that flowed around her like water including the chitchat

She never did worry about even the words the king spat

She tempted the waters and the evil and wicked that lured within it

She danced with dangers and believed the lies staring straight into its eyes

Unknowingly her only ally was her quick wit

She jumped at chance as we all do

Dug her feet and took her stance

Regardless of the life we're living we always seek a different view

It seems were lost in a trance avoiding the chance of the spiral of our lives so we suffice with just a glance

The eyes of evil stared her down like the way the eyes of the U.S stare at the Minority

They want us to respect the ones with seniority

Even the ones that abuse and misuse their authority

Changing directions of her fate

No one can deny she ate the entire plate of bait

Temptation fed her desire for excitement

But it takes pain and loss to bring us out of the mindset that has us locked up in confinement

No one could do it for her not even her father King Triton

The advisement wasn't enough for her

In through one ear out the other wouldve been better had they not said anything and remained silent

Later frightened her paranoia heightened

She is just like us

Don't we all fiend what we don't need?

Aren't we all drawn to the interesting and the intriguing

Love can make us do crazy things

Regardless of the even crazier things it brings

So her confusion and fear brought out Love

Brought joy, comfort, happiness, and affection all sent from above

He was perfect in all that he was

All his perfect imperfections

Regardless of the judgements of others of course, there were no objections

It was the communication, the adoration and the connections

If she didn't know he was bound to,

He was left and she was right, they always met regardless of the directions

She searched learning, discovering, finding herself out

You know it's true and really there if he can help you do that

Success came along with happiness

But they completed each other

Lived happily ever after

And had Faith that when they could no longer meet eachothers eyes

They would be reunited in the near hereafter
