The Calm


So I have this captain you see,
I am therefore the quartermaster
Would you believe?

Me second in line.
Captain is older I guess.
And truly I am fine :)

I'll take the order
Because it isn't long now
I can clearly see the border

That green lush freedom
Fresh air and sun
And most of all no constriction.

We have meandered
Past the tempting merfolk
Who hook when I have ventered.

They sing a sweet song
Smells of lavender and the Calm
Just have to remember it is not long.

A few yards out of their clutch
They have a deep ulterior motive
and their promises don't mean much

Past the sharks
Ahoy Ahoy
I sing like a new lark.

Up in the sky
The blue, the Calm
Soaring so high

Above it all
Soon enough I will find
After this huge fall
I will climb
And uncover what was deep inside

It all started with do you remember...
