"The Mermaid"

Far away, I can see she's stranded in her own world that she lives in
She tries so hard to fight each day, so her strong heart keeps giving
I know I can't help her, but I try so hard to let her know I understand
She's like a mermaid, a rare and beautiful creature thats not on this land
From an under world that I've haven't seen, but I notice that she is special in her way
I just can't fathom the idea of leaving her alone when all I want to do is just stay
What she doesn't know is, I'll give the air in my lungs to see her walk with me
Hold her hands and let her know she's not alone in this world that has to be
A tragic unfortunate soul wanders helplessly, and I'm powerless for I can't do nothing
She leans on something, for I'll give her my shoulder to lean on, I'll would give anything
She's so unique, she makes these eyes of mine see things like I never seen them before
How the littliest things seems so precious like a sun shining through a cloud that I adore
Like a silhouette of a mountain on shaded trees that hides the mysterious wilderness
My heart wish for her to know that I want to just care and willing to help her too
My eyes notice the sky of the colorful haze that comes when the sun breakthrough
I'ld give my heart to my Lord, if for one second she knew that she's my heartbeat
Feel my heart beating for her, but she doesn't look my way, so its incomplete
She says she can't survive in my world, she says you're a different kind of life
She's doesn't realize she's my life, without her I know I can't survive cold nights
So she's stranded in the middle of nowhere, head down, trying to not acknowledge hope
I'm standing on land, wondering if I can make her realize that the pain I can't cope
Two different worlds, but one thing we have in common is that we both own a heart
Wished she knew that it doesn't mean nothing if in my life she doesn't have a part
I'll try to just understand, and she says that time is what I need for her to live
Her strong hearts lets me know that she can make it, just wish there was something to give
I'll give her the distance, time, love, and anything that she will ask for
That I can't make her realize my love for her, and how I never felt like this before
This lovely creature, she swims in my memories, and I drown in her beauty and her mind
I find myself wrapped in her smile, drowned in her eyes, and fascinated in whatever I find
This exotic and mystery heart lies within this world, I'll find her one of these days
Just a dream of mine that I have, and the love for her won't ever be erase


THE END . . . .
