little mermaid

dont try to stop her
because no one can
she swims to tomorrow
with a picture in her heart

dont try to stop her
she wont listen
she cant see the impossible
when she looks into his eyes

dont try to stop her
she would kill
anyone in the way
between her and the fatal surface

dont try to stop her
her need for the human boy
drives her to the unbearable sand
and bake under the eyes of the sun

dont try to stop her
even though she knocks
each day on death's front door
nothing matters when he is there

dont try to stop her
when she suffocates from his breathe
because she would chose that
over water any day

dont try to stop her
im the little mermaid
trust me, ive tried to
but i cant stop me
