The Lost Ship


A lost ship on its elusive search for freedom,
Found itself hesitant while crossing the chasm,
It had wandered off to the trodden road,
Tried crossing the waters with a light borrowed,

The light got dimmer, remnants of the shadows remained,
The chasm grew wider while tethered clouds volplaned,
To bottomless perdition lay the road ahead,
Just open spaces with nowhere to tread.

The predicament of the moment was where to be,
Forever ruing the unanswered calls of uncertainty,
With destiny in sight it was difficult to stray,
A vertiginous perspective led it to doomsday,
While the ship reveled in its abyssal sense of loss,
The still cerulean waters continued to crisscross …
