The Grim Sailor


     Away across the seven seas,
          Sails a silent man from the east.
     Without a heart, deprived of peace,
          He tames a big destructive beast.

     His sealed mouth speaks of danger,
          But none of the great waves know.
     For his eyes cut like a dagger,
          Before the very winds could blow.

     Inside his hollow body
          Beneath the tanned flesh they see.
     Lay a portrait so empty,
          Of a soul full of misery.

     Dare not seek for the grim sailor,
          And thou shall not speak of him.
     For in you I see no valor,
          In knowing a story so dim
