She sails her boat northward

Across the pier she goes

Content with what she has discovered

She’ll never let go

The seas are high

And the sun is bright

But day turns to dusk

And dusk turns to night

In the shadows of the dark

The heavens break open

And release a powerful storm

What an unfortunate token

She gives up hope

And starts to wonder

Should I just stop?

But I jump in when she starts to ponder

“I’ll let you sink your ship

In the deep oceans of your fear

But never forget that somewhere underneath

There’s a mermaid waiting to appear

And she will take you away from here.”
