something lies beyond those clouds,
at the end of the world i’m sure we’ll find out
something hovers on in outer space
would you ever like to visit that place?
I dreamt of floating in the ocean all alone
and my thoughts weighed on me like a stone
and with each breath, i strengthened to bear the load
till my minds eye, like a diamond glowed
A sailor at the port told me
that he only felt safe and sound
or in other words free
when it was just him, with no one around
in a boat, on the open sea
and that was the last I saw of him
I was told he succumbed to the siren’s hymn
fair enough I said,
imagining what thoughts had been in his head
