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,
