Beacon of Hope

The waves crash on the rocky shore The storm reaches even ocean floor Many miles into the sea That to it seem like infinity The ship is sailing looking for beech of sand Upon which it can land Sea is cold dark and deep The waves crush upon the ship The misty fog darkens the sky You can only see couple of meters with naked eye They know there somewhere land will lay But if the ship hits the reef the crew will die And rocks upon the shore Can also send the ship to sea floor What’s more The eerie fog and billows howling like dogs of war But for sore eyes there is a sight At the distance among mist flickering light The beacon that guides the ships at night As the crew with storm will fight The same storm is in my soul And it grows beyond control But I’m still looking for the light That will guide my mind through the night The vortex can shape the mind So non linear equation it will find As continuously grows the mind The vortex leaves no time wasted or dream left behind Will the crew make it or crash on the rocky shore? Or will the billows send the ship to sea floor Or will them safely on the beech land Near the dune in the sand Will this be my light? That will free my sight That will guide me through spiritual night I know this to the end I will fight

Patrycjusz, I am writing a novel of sailing yachts and would like to include one stanza of "Beacon of Hope" in the novel. May I have your permission to use the stanza that begins with "will the crew make it or..." Thank you for your consideration,
