Stranger Tides

I lost myself on stranger tides,

With this mind of mine,

I went on a ride,

To the moon-lit banks,

And the starlit skies,

I strolled across the banks,

Too afraid to dive.

I lost myself on stranger tides,

Found faceless men,

and wolves that cried,

Saw the moon change phases,

With phases of my mind,

Waves taking away the traces,

Of the footsteps,

And the cravenness left behind.

I lost myself to stranger tides,

As I took the plunge,

Into the dark and the light,

Just to find myself,

In the sun- kissed valleys,

That hid inside.
