Diaries Of A Mermaid

Rating: 5.0


Everyday, i roam around the reef & think
Think of the lighted arrows which warms me
I hear above voices of people laughing & crying, so i take a wink
Then i became curious 2 know the world outside the sea
I thought that their world is beautiful & pink
So, i felt jealous, unsatisfied & not free

Sometimes, when the shore is empty & calm
I get closer 2 enjoy the balm
I find a little girl throwing 2 the sea a simple wish
Hoping that it would be caught by some fish

I have too many questions in my soul
I wonder if people r living by a rule?
R they happy & enjoying this world?
Or they r sad & feeling bored?

But i'm mad from their deeds
Why do they kill my friends & prohibit me from my needs
We r weak but beautiful creatures
They know that the beauty of the sea is reflected on their features

We love the beauty
& that's why the lord created us here
&serving man is our duty
we never worry about the next hour, day or year

but at the end of the day
i walk with my friends & we play
i thank GOD 2 be in this small world
among my friends & family which r my sword
& i return back & with the waves i sway

This is good, and very imaginative. The mermaid questions why man should be killing her friends (the sea animals) and other things. After all the lines 'We love the beauty/ & that's why the lord created us here/ &serving man is our duty/ we never worry about the next hour, day or year...' show how ironic that man being the most important of all God's creation turn out to be the creatures who worry too much.
