Epitaph

One day, and it will come (no doubt),
My ship will perish... Disappear...
I don’t remember how she came about.
I won’t remember when she leaves the pier.

And so I stand, in front of roaring ocean,
Unable to predict the tide,
When ghastly wind turns fear to emotion,
And proud sail turns my dreams to pride.

I don’t regret, for I lived through my failings.
I don’t despise, for I forgave my foes.
I lived and loved like roses through steel railings!
And... I am still in love from tip to very toes!
