Love this image of Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Wahlberg in the film Basketball Diaries (1995). One of my favourite films of DiCaprio's and a must watch if you are a fan or not. Both actors are great in this film and there are some powerful scenes here - tear jerkers for sure!
She has the frivolous ideas that make so much sense
She yearns for freedom and looks to the surface
This intense longing doesn't make her nervous
Happy to leave the world she has always known
Happy to leave the side of her Father's thrown
She wishes to embody that of another
She is trapped and feels there is only one way to recover
A promise she made and is destined to keep
For love, she has made the biggest leap

Note: Found this artwork on Deviantart and loved the modern twist on my favourite cartoon so I created a poem that reflects the story of The Little Mermaid.
