"Tattered Sails" -- Frank Casimiro © -- All rights reserved 1999

You spend a lot of time alone, your mind wanders far and wide
Along one comes; you float in their words, like they're a rapid river ride
You find support as you take a hold, grabbing what they give in stride
Then the bottom falls out and you loose control, and sink deeply through their eyes

You make of them much more than they are, a vision to please your mind
Something longed for in your life, something sheltered you search to find
You clasp so tight onto what you want that no ropes can match this bind
When you realize what they really are, your longed for vision just leaves you blind

Now you're down and low; you want to end it all, in a great suicidal squeeze
But you surface from your shipwrecked trip, although it comes not with much ease
You must stitch the wounds that were cut so deep to carry on across life's seas
Just you remember on this ship called life, tattered sails will catch no breeze
