The mermaid's chest fluttered with fear
As the essence of Calvin Klein came too near
The dark coolwater motioned her in
as she was blinded by his aqua chrome fin
Mighty mauve were her cheeks when he entered the room
It was Romeo and Juliet under the luminous moon
She described his lips as a red velvet touch
His Ferrari black hair, it was just too much
As he taxied by her heartbeat flew
oblivion took over as he worked his voodoo
Always say no, her friends would mention
He was a one man show, no contradiction
Sitting in a corner in the black cafe,
just thinking and picking at her peach parfait,
Still recovering from last nights kiss
something blue came to mind, he was so missed
Then through the dark lights she saw something new
The silver ice hair accompanied by who?
Lost in his chapel of love he reached for her face
Over the sandalwood table in which they both embraced
A flash of fuscia surfaced her skin
diesel fuel flew through her, spreading her thin
She stood up making fists walking towards the couple
They'll think I’m only a waitress and won't cause any trouble
The fight in her head raged as she threw the water
messing up the room as if it were Pearl Harbor
She re-loaded the gun and let him have it again,
She would be mad for today,
But tomorrow she would give in...

nice use of rhyme. it has a distint meter and sound which gives it an interesting character. I like the colored type too. It works well. The narrative gets us right away.
