Should I

Perhaps in that angry sea, no, why would you want to join me - so close the eroding shore; a faltering ship, that in its hold heavy cargo of the past tosses and rattles about? No, if you were to join me, how, through this small scuttle could two hearts fit with the stores of many years entwined? But, your song draws me to a leeward stillness in the shadow of a friendly isle where I need not struggle for the helm - perhaps I can let go ... with you, should I?
