I Met My Love At the Ocean

His eyes were blue as the ocean.
 swam by my side like a merman

 The salted water shone his like satin.
The sun stroked his hair with gold streaks.
He stopped and glanced at me,
And said “you are my princess”, I smiled.

Since then I went to the sea daily,
waiting to see him again,
his image in my mind ,
his words engraved in my heart.

Never saw him again .
Was it my imagination?
Was he a merman or was it the sea,
Observing and talking to me?
Or was the mermaid me?
