Mar 2013
The bitter taste of loneliness
And a thirst that’s never quenched
Even when I drink up the sun and moon and stars

I am the captain of my ship
I sleep alone amongst the child of a hundred trees
My vessels groans at sea

And the stormy water seeks to drown
But the rain is lovely
And the salt spray will not take me

I seek to find a place where I am safe and sound
But I am adrift for now
Mutinous and cosmic life

The sun and moon and stars stare down
They keep me company
And assure me that I am not alone
