The Little Mermaid

She wanted more, more than she was able to have. She wasn't happy with herself, she wanted to be part of their world. Swimming wasn't enough. Oh how she wanted to walk, to walk away from all of her problems. The people she let down. The disappointment. She was scared. Scared that she'll never be as good as she was, a long time ago, in a place almost distant. She changed. She lost her voice. Her motivation. Her desire. She wanted to be happy Again. She had lost her world and everything important. She wanted to go back to her previous home. She jsut wanted to swim and be happy with little disappointment. It was fear that held her back.
