"Once I saw a Mermaid, as lovely as can be, sitting on the waterbreak as if waiting just for me. I approached ever so slowly, for fear she might just flee, and return to an ocean home, in caves of this blue sea.
‍

But she smiled, beckoned me forward, then said that she knew me, from a lifetime long long ago, when my home too was the sea. She said a mermaid has one wish, that must be given away, mine she was against, but of me she could not sway.

‍
You see my love your wish back then, was to leave the depths and flee, for you were once a mermaid too, a child belonging to me."
