Forget Us Not

Forget us not, we men of sea
Tho given to the waves we be
Still guided by the stars and moon
Sobering cold engraves our tomb
Careless day, unfathomed shore
Enchanted fog betwixt thine ore
You hear the creaks of stern and bow
You hear us speak, remember now.

While gone away, we're taken then
Suffer a man to breathe his end
Above the din recall the sound
Vocal rasp; the waves that bound
Sleeping night, careening mast
Beneath the stars, a bleeding past
Seeping through the misty friend
You hear us speak, remember when.
