Empty Ship

bysteelkat29©

This ship is full
Filled to bursting
With both gold
And shit

The crew is conflicted
Torn between choices
Stay and fight
Or flee

Joy abandons ship first
She cannot breathe
Under the weight
Of Sorrow

Sorrow jumps ship next
Without his Joy
He is rampant
A monster

Those sworn to them
To Lady Joy
And Lord Sorrow
Jump too

Only Captain Freedom remains
He is trapped
Lost, chained forever
Foolish hero

His ship is full
Yet tragically empty
She is broken
Sinking slowly

With Freedom trapped inside
