The Courteous Sea

I sing my dormant swoosh, As I lie in wait for my moon. With my breeze I give shore lovers a push As the star follower is lost too soon, as clouds swoon The naive navigator fears his maroon My heart melts at the price of your energy at night. I have heard soul's scream for their soul I am your creator.... never defeated...showing powerful might As I swayed while they swam for pearls, oils and lost gold I detest fuming coal, my rough, ice skin swallowed Titans whole Loose is the harpoon as is the value put on my life Secrets of the beginning beat within my chest I am moved by my mistress moon and the wind, my wife I am pirated but i am but one, beautifully old... the best! The day will come, some should expect... for me to be the only thing left
