Mermaid
you sent me a mermaid in the mail
with holes in the bottle so she could breath
but her water spilled out
mermaids need their water to breath
not just air like you and me
and her water spilled out
you sent me a flower in the mail
in a box that was sealed with a golden seal
and this box was beaten, broken, and worn
it must have been lost for weeks on end cause i opened it up and the flower was dead
it was from you
just the same
Sirena
me enviaste una sirena por correo
con agujeros en la botella para que pudiera respirar
pero su agua se derramó
las sirenas necesitan su agua para respirar
no solo aire como tú y yo
y su agua se derramó
me enviaste una flor por correo
en una caja sellada con un sello dorado
y esta caja estaba golpeada, rota y desgastada
debe haber estado perdida por semanas porque la abrí y la flor estaba muerta
era de ti
igual que siempre
