In a deep, orange-tinted sunset, a lone mermaid sits on the sea rocks. Her tail shimmers faintly in the fading light, while her hair - wet and tangled - hints an indescribable sorrow. The waves gently cradle her as she gazes toward the horizon, yearning for the sailor who once promised he would stay with her forever.
 
His ship has long since sailed, leaving her among salt and seaweed, her heart aching with the memory of his departure. Yet she remains, suspended between hope and endless longing. Despite her loneliness, there is dignity in her stillness - a quiet elegance. 
 
Though he left, she embodies endurance: her grief is deep, but so is her beauty. In her abandonment, she becomes both tragic and timeless - an emblem of love unrealised, and a witness to what remains beneath the waves.
