Tempests May Come

I'm weaker than you And just as frightened. I have cowed and hoarded While you braved harsh years Holding back nothing. Your pilgrimage cannot be appropriated or diluted You journey to please No One but your Gods. You understood from fledgling human connaissance Your body and extended Body are but vessels That They may guide your soul. I don't know how to help you And in my cowardice Believe I can't Sail ye on, you are the glory that They dream.
