Mermaids' Scream
Alain Johannes
I send away hidden words
Held aloft moonlit birds
In this heart you still beat
Unhindered
In the pounding of storms
One more wreckage beneath
I will salvage our dream
As your voices ring out
Like a mermaid's scream
I'll keep watch in the fog
On the shore of this world
Foot-stepped sand
I know well
Not alone it's just me
