Far Away
A thousand miles of oceans
Days and nights alone at sea
Whales sing under harvest moons
Its a refuge from the bitter world i see
Stars direct me to new horizons
To new lands calling out to me
Perhaps new roots and love await me
I can finally be free from misery
My passion for mankind has dwindled
That candle melted so long ago
Now i breathe in deep the salty airs
And accept a life of ebb and flow
One day when you no longer hear of me
And my name no longer missed
Know that ill be singing with the whales and dolphins
In the seas eternal bliss.
