I Am the Captain of My Vessel
The Master of My Fate
I ring the bell of life, its chime carried by the sea breeze
A gentle awakening stirs, a sense of purpose clear
With this gentle, guiding embrace, my spirit now takes flight
No longer do I wander, lost in a world of strife
For the sea has unlocked the gateway to my dream life
Its boundless expanse, a mirror to my open mind
Invites me to chart a course where my desires I will find
In this seaward voyage, I discover a sense of renewal
Sailing towards a future where my dreams eternally await
/
I am the captain of my vessel, the master of my fate

A classic work this is. Excellent poem. I like the line: "For the sea has unlocked the gateway to my dream life," I can envision the moving water mingling with the thoughts in my subconscious mind.
