A Mermaid Poem About Inner Freedom
We all experience moments when life closes in around us. This mermaid poem about inner freedom encourages you to break free from environments and circumstances that weigh heavily on your spirit.
These weights often come from others' expectations, and even more often from ourselves. Discovering both a physical sanctuary and a mindset of freedom becomes essential to reclaiming your authentic self.
A Mermaid Like Me
Where is the mermaid who is just like me?
Is she beautiful and fragile with a touch of whimsy?
If I find her I'll ask her how I can be
Just like a mermaid, a mermaid like me
My hair would be long with waves and curls
My body adorned with shells and pearls
I'd move like a dancer, my stage the sea
And be just like a mermaid, a mermaid like me
I would sit at the very edge of the beach
So the water was just within my reach
A safe place to escape to, the tranquil sea
Where I'd be just like a mermaid, a mermaid like me
No one would ever bother me here
I could swim where I want to without any fear
Away from expectations I am truly free
Just like a mermaid, a mermaid like me
Free me from "shoulds" and habits of old
A powerful tail would make me feel bold
Then I could fly away free in the sea
And be just like a mermaid, a mermaid like me
