The Sailor

I am not a man Nor am I just a boy I am the sailor Sailing a different voyage. I am sailing to the sun Over the ocean deep and blue Don't know where I am heading Wont know when I am through. I am sailing to the shore To the places I have been before Hoping just to hear People cheer instead of fear. I am not the truth Nor am I just a lie For i am the sailor With the tears for you to cry. I am sailing across the seas To where I do not know Till someone needs my needs Calling through the snow. I am steering the great boat Navigating through the waves Hoping that the truth will float Instead of tears for me to know. I am the only captain Steering towards the rocks With the waves across my brain Pelting down like rain. I will sail the seas forever Till someone needs my help Till then I pray for a lover With needs to be felt. I am not dead Nor will I feel alive Till I hear the world and you say Never again will you cry. Randy L. McClave
