The Grand Ship pt3 The Grand Ship sleeps at the bottom of the sea Its soul is fierce and wild and strong, and anything but free It longs for him, Our Elexander, who now lies on darker shores But do not be fooled to think he slumbers, for his spirit is also sore For without his ship he can not sail to the depths of those who live no more But behold the valiant Mercury who’s sworn to end this pain and strife He plunges the dagger in his own heart to dive into the afterlife I search for Elexander with his gossamer wings proudly unfurled But across the threshold of Night and the Real on a midnight train with her lips in a curl Our Elexander has stumbled across the lonely and exiled runaway girl She sees his ghost as if he lives but does not scream or shutter And he clings to her, for years it seems he’s been seen by no other He tells his tale, she listens well, but still does not believe To her it feels just like a dream she’s having on this midnight eve But the train stops, and she discovers it’s more real than it may seem For Mercury had reunited with the Grand Indifference’s soul The ship had perished long before its captain’s life had paid its toll It took after its owner with great wings to take them to the sky And the runaway, Marie, had always dreamed about the chance to fly But never had she knew she would, and in ecstasy they flew so high Above the clouds and stars and night, To touch the cold of the moon’s white light, Then off to the east to end Kimberly’s plight |
