My life on the rocks...

I stand on the rocks
Mighty ships coming to and from the docks
The spray of the churning sea hits me
This is the only time when I ever felt truly free

My ship has sunk, my life has died
This sea is the ocean of tears I’ve cried
The wind has never settled down
One more move and I will drown

There’s no life jacket for my help
Just a painful gurgle is my yelp
If I stopped the tears I would survive
But there’s no more strength in me to stay alive

Other ships just pass on by
Watching me drown, while I cry
My clutching hand is all that’s left
My last gesture before I enter death!
