LoSt

A piece of gauze has fitted itself over her being. The world feels muffled.

Like the spaces between waking and dreaming. Soft spaces. Shifty sand.

The little mermaid gave up her being and her voice so that she could have legs like a human, in the hope that the prince will love her. But he did not.

She lost her mermaid soul. For the love of a man who did not love her back.

What have you lost?
