Happiness, The Never Fulfilled Pot

I went to look for happiness, 

Leaving behind the feathers of sadness, 

Across the shore to the mermaid, 

Who wanted to be a human, 

Lives exchanged, I let her walk, 

As I swam across the ocean. 

I still wait for her to return, 

It's been two days, and she isn't. 

Maybe, she believed, 

The ghost in my house,

As a real person.

Is that so, she been betrayed and killed, 

Or why is my soul shivering, 

With the cold wind from the graveyard.
