“MY SOUL IS MORE THAN MATCHED”
MY SOUL, “SHE’S OVER-MANNED.”
“HE’S DRILLED DEEP DOWN AND BLASTED ALL REASON OUT OF ME.”
I’M TIED TO HIM AND DON’T KNOW WHY.
HIS MADNESS HAS SHAKEN MY SOUL.
DO I STAY FAITHFUL ALWAYS,
DROWNING ALL MY TROUBLED THOUGHTS AWAY.
TO SAIL THE SHARKISH SEA,
OH LIFE! OH PITY ME.
WITH HEART I’D RISE ABOVE
MY HEART’S RUN-DOWN WITH NO KEY.
I’M TIED TO HIM AND DON’T KNOW WHY.
HIS MADNESS HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL.
AND OLD AHAB IN HIS CABIN
WHERE HE BROODS THE HORRORS INTO THEE.
IN HIS MADNESS AHAB’S SHAKEN,
AS HE BROODS IN LONELY REVERIE.
“MY SOUL IS MORE THAN MATCHED”
MY SOUL “SHE’S OVER-MANNED.”
“HE’S DRILLED DEEP DOWN AND BLASTED ALL REASON OUT OF ME.”
I’M TIED TO HIM AND DON’T KNOW WHY,
BUT FEEL THAT I MUST HELP HIM TOO.
IN HIS MADNESS I AM SHAKEN.
CAN I STILL THE TERROR THAT I SEE?
THAT OLD AHAB IN HIS CABIN
WHERE HE BROODS THE HORRORS INTO THEE.
SPARKLING SEA, PEACE TO THEE,
OVER THE DEAD WATER OF THE WAKE WE GO,
STAND BY ME, HOLD TO ME
GOD BLESS ME.
