The waves lashed against the shore With a sound that was loud and thirsty for more As I lay my feet on the soft sand The waved caught me by my ankles And led me away from land

I was caught in an undertow With no boat and no row With no air to breathe And no fresh water to quench my greed

I stopped struggling with the waves And sank lower and lower,against my craves To the bottom of the ocean Where coelenterates and fish are in motion

Cutting through the water, Their slender bodies swimming faster and faster I realised I could see underwater! A miracle! So fantastic,I'm being lyrical! *sorry for the terrible rhyming :p* I touched my neck; I had gills And I was filled with thrills!

My legs turned into a tail. My hair grew longer, I have been made a mermaid. I laughed and cut through the water like a knife I was free and happy The undertow was the best thing that's happened in my life.
