We sent out the SOS call. It was a quarter past
four in the morning when the storm broke our
second anchor line. Four months at sea, four
months of calm seas only to be pounded in the
shallows off the tip of Montauk Point. They call
then rogues, they travel fast and alone. On
hundred foot faces of God's good ocean gone
wrong. What they call love is a risk, cause you
will always get hit out of nowhere by some wave
and end up on your own. The hole in the hull
defied tthe crews attempts to bail us out. And
flooded the engines and radio and half buried
bow. Your tongue is a rudder. It steers the whole
ship. Sends your words past your lips or keeps
them safe behind your teeth. But the wrong words
will strand you. Come off course while you sleep.
Sweep your boat out to sea or dashed to bits on
the reef. The vessel groads the ocean pressures
its frame. Off the port I see the lighthouse
through the sleet and rain. And I wish for one
more day to give my love and repay debts. But the
morning finds our bodies washed up thirty miles
west. They say that the captain stays fast with
the ship through still and storm. But this ain't
the Dakota, adnt the water is cold. We won't have
to fight for long. This is the end. This story's
old but it goes on and on until we dissappear.
Calm me and let me taste the salt you breathed
while you were underneath. I am the one who
haunts your dreams of mountains sunk below the
sea. I spoke the words but never gave a thought
to what they all could mean. I know that this is
what you want. A funeral keeps both of us apart.
You kno that you are not alone. Need you like
water in my lungs. This is the end.
