Andrea's Mermaid Diary

We are too young to run further
and then too old to turn back


We are too soon to have it all
and then too late to try once more


We are too excited to be serious
and then too tired to be generous


We are too greedy to hold up tight
and then too easy to let go like that


We are too short to reach the height
and then too tall to match the sight



We are too far to the lover's eye
and then too close to the bottom line


we are too strong to be capable
and then too weak to stable the pulse


We are too good at being miserable
And then too hard to believe in something faithful


We are too lucky enough to have someone grumling about
and then too fuck up when we have a chance to make it up
