A Short Story
A ship was found today
All alone at sea
The captain is never supposed to leave
But they weren't there this time
No they were lost
Untied the rope from the escape boat
Took the paddle in hand
Moved away from the past
It had become a sluggish tar pit
It needed to be cut loose
It was an infectious deadly, deadly disease
That almost took their life away
The lighter boat made for an easier time
Long gone that giant ship, long gone the tar pit
Expecting, waiting, hoping
But it never came
They found the vessel inviting
But home was still on the front of their minds
They couldn't forget
They pondered their descent
Would they let the gods decide?
Take it on their own time?
It wasn't getting better
Would it ever change?
They sat
Waited
Waited
Waited
Waited
All alone at sea
The captain is never supposed to leave
But they weren't there this time
No they were lost
Untied the rope from the escape boat
Took the paddle in hand
Moved away from the past
It had become a sluggish tar pit
It needed to be cut loose
It was an infectious deadly, deadly disease
That almost took their life away
The lighter boat made for an easier time
Long gone that giant ship, long gone the tar pit
Expecting, waiting, hoping
But it never came
They found the vessel inviting
But home was still on the front of their minds
They couldn't forget
They pondered their descent
Would they let the gods decide?
Take it on their own time?
It wasn't getting better
Would it ever change?
They sat
Waited
Waited
Waited
Waited
