Destiny the Ship

I ask not that the waves be stilled
for upon their breaking are my dreams fulfilled

My hopes may plummet after each crest
but that is where I find myself best

Riding up the next wall of water
those visions of mine do not falter

And there soaked and terribly worn
at last have I conquered the storm

No longer holding me within it's grip
failure's grasp upon me slips

Off into the distance I seek a foreign realm
destiny the ship and I at the helm
