A Lost Sailor

A Lost Sailor

Time has far gone by,
everything has changed,
I left the island in such a
hurry, and now, it is all gone,
the people I love or loved once,
the places I cherished,
the music that I danced to,

Everything is and all gone.
How far I remained in the sea,
much longer than I supposed
to. Or perhaps, only this much
of light and love was promised
in my fate and then, I had to
begin again dead wishing to
be reincarnated.

A quick death would have been
mercy, but perhaps it is important
to wait and cherish death at times,
or else it will escape us,
when we call for it
in real.
