***Stumbling on her new feet A regular fish out of water Wanting her brain and heart to meet The former to talk some sense to the latter Wistful for the melancholy seas Nostalgic for those left behind It is on land where uncertainty breaks free A plaintive wail for those of her kind Foreign land stretching afar On pale limbs she has yet to adopt How crashingly desolate will it be to explore To make use of this magic she has yet to exploit A wriggle of her toes Jaw clenched in determination She stands by the decision she chose To search for the source of her affection He's out there, she'll find him No matter the stakes She'll stand on her two feet And wait as long as it takes***
