Wrath

Winds of gale born from natures wrath
shook my vessel in horrid plight
lifting waves to churn my craft
tearing tooth and claw at my chosen path.
Stubborn I stood to wheel, aloof to all but battle,
as for hours I fought endless wave
my strength against an ocean  
my mind firm against the sea.
Freezing of arctic chill yet still I stood
soaked in tears from each angry blast
worn and weary yet would I never surrender
till you finally spoke the softest plea.
Crumpled now, my ship adrift
battered, broken,
as once again I await thy pleasure.
