Do you often, just before slipping away
into a dream, find yourself agonizing over what it all could have been?

Are you not numbingly furious over the things you didn't do,
and the ones you shoud have done,
yet couldn't?

Are you haunted by your past, and sailing towards a hollow future?
Is your present devoid of purpose?

Take comfort in knowing that, aboard the ship you command
sail the rest us of us lost souls,
wandering the endless sea of life,
rowing towards an unreachable horizon.
