Lifeboat

Lifeboat




Welcome aboard, our small little ship called life


They told me not to go


Captain said we’d reach that salty sea bay soon

But things weren’t smooth sailing, aboard our small pontoon

The calm cool crystal waters below beckoned me

They told me to jump, to find what was beyond the sea


They told me not to go


But despite my efforts I couldn’t bear the wait

To travel the ocean and explore this path, what other cause than pure blessed fate?

So I set out alone aboard a little lifeboat

With the sun in my gaze all set ablaze, a small tingle in my throat


They told me not to go


But that small little lifeboat didn’t get me far

It’s empty now, no food or drink, not even a jar

Those wet waving waters are closer than ever now

liquid begins to flood in from a void, just off the bow


They told me not to go


We’re sinking now with not much time left to spare

Yet I lay back in my little lifeboat, without a single care

The waters begin to swallow me, with blue all around

Where will it take me? if only to peace and love abound
