Sail of In Life

this ship sails 
in one direction
never looks back
only memories 
they drift by

saying how i feel
cast in this world 
an ocean 
of memories
always dreaming 
of something better

missing what 
you never had
sailing of into illusion
looks begin to fade
to feel the change
i am only saying 
how we all feel

born to sail 
of in this life
from youth matures 
like a good wine
drinking of it 
you will be no more

we all still go 
in this direction
give me a number 
if you can manage
a mystery 
like the pyrmaids 
of Egypt

old was 
its destiny
the ship that sails 
in one direction
our age

all our memories
no one can stop 
this boat sailing
destained,
final destaination 
our life

until this ship 
can sail no more
like an eagle 
my soul flies
 to the heavens
to be joined 
with angels

Until this ship can sail no more..We continue our journey against the winds..above the tide..beneath a rainbow and at times rain..Im not scared of getting old..Getting older is a blessing..and definitely the beauty of a good heart is like the sea-forever young.I really enjoyed this poem.I have one about sailing too if i remember.
