I can make it

For that I am sure

But somewhere along the way I got lost

I took a bad shortcut

I nearly reached the finish line

But my soul was wrecked

A mermaid on dry land for too long

Now is the time to heal

Regroup and repurpose

The finish line is still near

I will find joy in the gravel

I am going to get there

This time, it must be the right way
