Calypso
Location
Vividly, I remember,
Calling up my wildest dreams.
Dreams of gold,
Dreams of the sea,
Dreams of Calypso.
The Heathen Goddess of the Sea.
She stole me heart and plundered me soul.
I paid my ten years,
I rushed ashore to see her.
But alas! My Calypso was gone!!
Furiously, I felt betrayed.
I asked a court to assemble.
I begged them to bind her.
I couldn't lose Calypso again.
I showed them how to do it.
Bound in her bones, she ran off.
Bouncing from place to place.
I hated the sea.
I hated my heart.
I couldn't take this ache.
I ripped open my chest and cut out the heart that will always be hers.
