Doldrums

Becalmed again my heart is the sea
I sit and wait in vain for the doldrums are me
Adrift again my mind is the sail
Though I’m at rest I’m awake through no fault of my own
Fickle woman turns a page
What was still is now a racing sea
I feel the shifting tide
I want to brave it out
But I still remember fear
So little time to love
Let alone the time to die
I wonder should I leave or could I try again
Becalmed again my heart is the sea
I sit and wait but in vain for the Doldrums are me
