Aspiration Without Fabrication

Angry ocean waves
so rough so cold
a plotted course
a simple belief
life has more in store
the seas of negativity no more
a calm horizon i see
beyond the thunderous sounds of regret
a warm breeze whispers my name
guides me towards hope
my aspirations not fabrications
fear direct me no more
i break free of your chains
my thirst from you will not extinguish me
this life means something more
needs nothing more to live but to drink from the well of wonder
with a child's imagination continue forth and believe that this place 
this time is right for me despite all it may seem 
My ship of dreams will remain on course sturdy and true.
