Restless

Abroad this rusty carib boat

And sing to no avail

You can cry til ears run dry

And drink til you are stale

Hopeless wander’rs lose their hearts

And forfeit up this game

With lagging features ’cross their marks

And ticks that never tame

Wilful widows hide their tones

And whisper in the dark

There isn’t anyone at home

Or yet there was a park

For once a day within the bleak

Amongst the shadowed liars

Jokers let their hands behold

Their tricks left in the briars

Tell the tale once again

Of lost winds caught at sea

Never do you steer the ship

Towards the jagged leaves

I never had a hand hold

Nor did I catch the life

Reflected in the sunny sky

Between the candlelight
