Carpe venum! Says maitre d' Like always, I’m alone Sitting at the bar, sipping wine Watching people dance Couples strolling leisurely along I reach to the port-side Inhaled my presence And exhaled my past out As I look deep into the ocean The waves whisper to me Poor lonely ocean or my delusional heart? Both were longing for forgiveness Pulling me in “Don’t fight the current, I’ll wash away your sins”, says the ocean Falling in love, we trusted each other Like fools in a prison So deep It swallowed my heart And my last breath Drowning in cursed the ocean For it not just broke my trust But played with the divinity of my heart This is unforgivable For thousand years, parts of me Will curse the passengers boarding For now it is my home I’ve thrown away the blues I’m tired of being used I can’t let others sail to my heart This night is cold in the cruise And I’m not afraid of the storm My waves of love will forgive Those yearning On the port-side

The Cursed Ocean
Carpe venum! Says maitre d' Like always, I’m alone Sitting at the bar, sipping wine Watching people dance Couples strolling leisurely along I reach to the port-side Inhaled my presence And exhaled my past out As I look deep into the ocean The waves whisper to me Poor lonely ocean or my delusional heart? Both were longing for forgiveness Pulling me in “Don’t fight the current, I’ll wash away your sins”, says the ocean Falling in love, we trusted each other Like fools in a prison So deep It swallowed my heart And my last breath Drowning in cursed the ocean For it not just broke my trust But played with the divinity of my heart This is unforgivable For thousand years, parts of me Will curse the passengers boarding For now it is my home I’ve thrown away the blues I’m tired of being used I can’t let others sail to my heart This night is cold in the cruise And I’m not afraid of the storm My waves of love will forgive Those yearning On the port-side
The ineffable mysteries of the ocean
