I once heard someone say
The world inside your head is barren,
But I brush that thought away
For who they are to think they know.
The spring came but I failed to fix the gloom
For in corners of my mind, the thought grew bit by bit,
Iโm trapped;
For my own skin no longer seems to fit.
The whole world crawls on my walls
They tell me, tomorrow will be good,
How long does it takes to reach the mountains
When your soul in trapped in the woods?
My days are constantly afraid of nights
No Matter how brightly it shines, that moon,
For seasons are mere illusions
I am forever out of tune.
Noice

This paints a very clear vivid picture to me; I feel the words as if they are things not breaths and sound. Very nice work.

That was beautiful and with such clear expression, I felt the space deeply; however, one can never be out of tune, for each unique sound has a place, purpose and perfection to it.

It was nicely written but I think this wasn’t the mermaid speaking.
Keep writing.

Very Nice. But I may be of the one as you say who believes in the wheel will turn around!! Yes it does! Having been over six decades on this earth, I do strongly believe on that!! In these tough times due to COVID19, herebelow is my take for that – A poem in Nonet form!
*Win*
No matter we are torn asunder,
We are not beaten down under
Still are strong enough to fight
Take measures to ward off
And nullify it
We have the Will
So this war
We will
*Win*!!!

Words are timeless! Beautiful melancholy in your poem. Time is endless, as we are in spirit. We touch this earth but for a moment at Godโs choosing. In that brief second, He gives us free choice to believe in Him or not, which determines where we journey from there. With Faith and prayer, we are never alone!
