A Mermaid Named Romance | By Gabriel Foster | Poem | Some people see the differences of each other as a barrier to collaboration and an excuse to swim away from any potential relationship. For others, it’s a chance to wade the undiscovered waters of if. Choosing to drown fear and the denial of attraction. For those brave nomads of chronic loneliness, sadness and tear stained faces, I say smile, or you have just rewritten the mythologies of mermaids in the realities of humanity.
