Mermaid

How did this mermaid get in my tank?
Distorted curves in a transparent gel
Is the water warm enough
I love her honey mermaid smell.

When she surfaced her smile tickled my face,
Completely nude and not one trace,
Of something wrong or misconstrued,
Peel my eyes away unglued,

I dream I hear the water running over
Want to join her then I’d hold her,
But I can’t breathe when I submerge,
Every night I fight the urge.
