Beach Please

I haven't been the mermaid I usually am this summer.

But that doesn't mean that this summer has been any worse.

I've been collecting little sweet memories like sea shells on the beach.

And although it's been rocky at times,

I wouldn't change what I have for anything in the world.

Because these memories are mine, and mine only.

And I'm proud of what I can create even when I'm not the mermaid I usually am.
