Heart At Sea
Will thou remember me while adventures sought
On timbered ship of mast and sail
Cross seas so danger fraught
Or will exotic lands cause my visage to pale
Receding over time in thy dreams
as though I don deep veils
As you follow stars, I beseech moonbeams
To guide you safely onto shore
and betimes return to me
Mayhap I will become just a tale of yore
That you recall on storm tossed nights
when your mind is beset and sore
So while thou art here and our hearts unite
Within mine arms, I'll fill thy mind
I'll not let the sea win without a fight
Her siren's song seafaring men will follow blind
Mayhap the sea has met her match in me; womankind
