Death of Many Voyagers

In this your steep water of love There is a graveyard of ships Wherein Many men before me, Who heedlessly have seafared On this perilous journey of love What joy have they ever gotten But destitution, chaos and hurt They have only left their homes With foolish hopes of making Their way Into a maiden's heart, But in the end they were drowned Deep into your tempestuous tides As they docked their cursed ships In bottomless depth of the Ocean Of their strayed desires, perhaps Lust. But they have been afflicted by love They couldn't even learn from fates Of loss that befell those that dared To love you, their worst nightmare Even sun drowned in your horizon Your fine essence is the sweetness, Poison many have succumbed to Your tempting eyes is the daunting Ocean,the Death of many voyagers
