Compass Of Truth Dead Poets Tribute

Oh captain, my captain,
you said Carpe Diem
go out and seize the day;
Lead with only your heart,
rule makers have no say;

Oh captain, my captain,
I know I must just feel
to find my truth’s compass;
My soul is a wild horse, 
I’ll not wear a harness; 

Oh captain, my captain,
I’m such a romantic;
A filtered heart shaped lense 
gives prose tinted glasses;
Does love ever make sense?
