Decades On the Ocean

My heart is the old Titanic,
That sails on this somber galaxy,
Searching for a port to rest her aging engines,
But it is not the right time to stop the blades yet.
On the dark crimson sea, she travels and travels...
Days come and go like busy cargo ships,
And  nights stroll by, hastily, without resting its wings,
She keeps penetrating deep into the  apex of the Milky way,              
Yearning to see  the peaceful land of the saints.
