The Man in the Ocean

Over the hills, across the ocean tides

Leaves a man who has no sights

And when you speak to him you speak twice

And when he holds things he holds tight

There are sharks in the ocean to his right

And there are snake roaming at midnight

 The only source of threat to the ocean side

A threat that could put a cease to his life 

People come about asking questions like

"Why not somewhere else under the sky"

Goes the one answer to the dozens of whys

Is that "I will never forsake what is mine"

"But already you have forsaken your eyes"

"How people think so gullible" he'd reply

 "My eyes went ahead before me in time 

Wouldn't make me go down without a fight"
