Heart At Bay

There goes the sail 
Free drifting 
Floating through the vale 
Impenetrable clouds they form 
A cynical tale 
Life, free but a ceaseless storm 
No but i shall prevail 
Unsteady waters worn 
Lord; won't you direct my ship 
Inhabit the vessel forlorn 
Vulnerable in open bay 
Blind navigation through foggy mist 
I cannot see nothing but gray 
Praying troubles of haze will lift 
In my battered ship, lord i ask you to stay 
And at your merciful kiss 
Turbulent waves beneath flutter away 
Still waters amongst, i gracefully drift 
And erratic billows in my heart, now allay
