I found a treasure
The best of them all
Before I opened this treasure,
I thought,
Does the treasure want this?
Am I just another man,
Trying to unlock your secrets?
I decided to leave you be
For your treasure might not have been ready
Later I spot you,
Being searched by another seeker.
I was crushed
I was devastated
I fell away
Into your traps.
I learned my lesson-
To never leave your side.
The man who found you rotted away-
Your enchantment on him wore off,
While the one on me grew stronger.
Your riches were restored
I tried to get to the island you occupied,
But was swept away by the endless,
Ever-changing current.
To this day,
I try and try and try
But still,
I am trying to get the treasure within.
