Mermaid life

Once I was a child who loved to dream

I wanted that happy ending for the little mermaid

and so I rid the damsel who stood in the way

and then I waited for the prince

to remember the mermaid and love her again,

but he never did,

and they both died sad and heartbroken.

Meanwhile, from my dungeon sprung the damsel

now transformed into a fully fledged witch

who howled with rage whenever love approached

always appearing as the ugly stepsisters

the evil stepmother, the evil queen

taunting me in my dreams every night

thanking me for spawning her into life.
