my,ship sails

My ship sails out unto the ocean of wide open spaces It's hull creeking with the souls of all the people's faces.

A destiny of unknown dreams and desires, Burning within me, the coals from fires.

Time is a never ending stage I have missed My lips burning for the love of untouched lips From those I have not known or kissed.

I can not see the dreams of unknown shores My body is weakened by life's tasking chores.

Still I search onward to find a peaceful meaning Like a giant tree, aged and leaning.

What will I find and what will it all mean to me I look into my mirror and my reflection I can see.

Can I be happy and can I have my love Graceful and beautiful as the morning dove.

Like the wind that puts life into my sails Like the skies of blue and winding trails.

Oh, Lord show me the way and hold onto me tight Oh, Lord show me the way and show me the light.
