She was mine before another’s.
And another’s before mine.
She was mine before another’s;
She was another’s before mine.
.
My heart saddens that she drifts around
From ships to ship abound,
Dribbling along the sea.
Oh, Pirate
Mercenary of desires,
Pirate against the hire.
Beyond compassion;
I was wary of her might.
Stone cold Idol, wielder of all eyes
I was conquered at first sight.
Perhaps, I was her’s before she was mine;
Yet, ship to ship she was bound.
Why did I love her
and now watching her move by
Sinking ships and crashing lives.
My mind weeps and awes.
I think of how she was mine
before another’s and another’s before mine.
.
She was mine before another’s;
She was another’s before mine.
