'Harbour'

It's taken far too long to get here,

Far too many years spent roaming listlessly without direction.

I don't want to harbour these old apprehensions any longer,

Keeping my heart dry docked out of fear of disappointing you;

Let's cast off our shackles and set sail together,

Knowing even if the whirlpool claims us

We met our ends with passionate conviction.
