The Sea Ahead

I stand on the hard wooden deck,

Staring out at the sea ahead.

Where am i going? I don't not know,

All i know is i want to go home.

The sea is choppy, The deck is wet,

My compass is gone, I've no fuel left,

I see no land where ever we float.

The sea once brought me warmth inside,

A place to go to clear my mind.

My ship has faced the wildest seas,

The Rose Mary creaks with every hit,

Tipping the ship side to side,

I grip on tight not wanting to go over board.

The stormy weathers beyond belief,

How wild and rough it can be.

I'm sheltered inside my great big vessel,

But I am lost, with no where to go,

The food shall soon run out or so i am told.
