Realm.

The glittering lights intrigued me,
as I reached the height of the sea.

Between the black of the ocean and white-speckled sky,
the distant sound of laughter and music filled the night.

Easing closer, waves laping at my chin,
I gazed on in wonder, desire simmering from within.

I leapt from the water, onto dry land,
Fin becoming legs, allowing me to stand.

A male caught my eye, inviting me to dance,
And until the morning came, I was in a trance.

Never had I seen such an enchanting creature like he,
posessing the power to evoke such passion within me.

His voice was magical, his arms were strong,
in which he held me all night long.

We wanted this moment to last forever,
but deep down I knew we would not last together.

Never in all my existance, had I felt so alive,
But dawn was breaking, the time to depart had arrived.

As twilight woke, i ran for the shore,
Not sure if I could hide the truth anymore.

Before these feelings overwhelm,
I gave up my legs as I returned to my realm.
