The War Ship

My heart is like a war ship.


It sails over the bloody water to win the war that is at hand.

I see her talking to him, and a arrow goes through my sail.

I see him talking back to her, and a bullet fly through my bow.

The boat breaks, as my heart does.

I wish for the waves to take over me and let me die, but the captain steers me into the harbor.

He's the Captain, and he controls me.

Wherever he goes i go.

Whatever he wishes i wish.

He keeps me safe, when the war goes wrong, and he protects me the best he can. But when he leaves me alone in the cold dark night.

I return to the wreck out at sea, the broken bow and the wrecked sail.
