Feb 2010
Carving a shapely heart
With my sword
Into the ship's aft deck
Battling my foes oceans beyond
Conquering the mightiest vessels
Built by man
As memories stayed intact
The sea pictures
A lovely face of beauty
Discovering treasures from undisclosed charts
But once again
I'm faced with a ghostly past
Her presence enters in a mist
During rough seas
Seduced by her witchery
While falling on bended knees
No strength to regain composure
Consciously, I beg
Her forgiveness
To the lowest depth, I sink
Tidal waves washing my lust
To a name
I carved in shame
