The Courteous Sea
I sing my dormant swoosh,
As I lie in wait for my moon.
With my breeze I give shore lovers a push
As the star follower is lost too soon, as clouds swoon
The naive navigator fears his maroon
My heart melts at the price of your energy at night.
I have heard soul's scream for their soul
I am your creator.... never defeated...showing powerful might
As I swayed while they swam for pearls, oils and lost gold
I detest fuming coal, my rough, ice skin swallowed Titans whole
Loose is the harpoon as is the value put on my life
Secrets of the beginning beat within my chest
I am moved by my mistress moon and the wind, my wife
I am pirated but i am but one, beautifully old... the best!
The day will come, some should expect... for me to be the only thing left
