once upon a time
in a ocean cave down deep
there was a mermaid with red hair
who really really wanted feet
she wanted to explore
more than the ocean had to offer
and she had had sixteen years
Ariel, Ariel a girl of sixteen.
Wanting to be more than a fish in the sea.
Unfortunately, she can't take away those genes.
All she wants to do is flee.
She spends her days watching people.
