Sorrow the pirate
Twas about to walk,
The mighty wooden plank
With shackled wrists
And legs the same,
To ensure that Sorrow sank

The journey short
Though long in stride,
Consumed the light of day
As step by step
His feet did walk,
To death, Sorrow made way

"Ah, faster now
You swine of man,
You see away the sun."
"For when it goes,
Then so shall you.
Your life, this day, be done."

Then Sorrow turned,
To face the man
Belching out words aloud
Then veered his eyes
Up to the sky
And let silence weigh the crowd

The clouds did part
And shown the sun
The heat did sweat his brow
Then cool breeze blew
Against his skin
And whistled through the prow

A moments rest
Relaxing breath
Time seemed to disappear
With enemies
Sentencing death
His ship, they commandeer

Then memories
From all his life
Did flash before his eyes
Remembering
Both good...
