Where are you turning toward now? All your shipmates have gone And the days alone are long Of sameness and sameness before the prow. Remember the one that remains Embraced by ethereal arms Or washed by the earthiest rains — Your time like the darkness comes. You forgot all the names And work turns to play While your voice is echoing the air — And she rose above the waves To call you forth that fateful day When you joined the waters forever. |
