They're gone but never forgotten
abandoned out at sea,
some severely beaten by past storms
others stuck in misery,
my heart would like to bring them ashore
and rebuild their shattered dreams
give them a renewed sense of hope
so they can gracefully sail again,
but in the midst of wanting to do good
I enjoy living drama free
so instead of fighting with those other pirates
I've decided to just let them be.
