Sea of Dreams
I sail on the empty sea.
In a boat, alone is me.
Long awakened from my dream.
My eyes behold harsh sunlight's gleam.
…
Found an island, swam to shore,
Soon, a boat I had once more.
Now to Hyrule I return,
The days are long, but sleep I spurn.
…
Have had enough of dreams unreal.
So from night's grasp I stay concealed.
Only take brief light sleep,
As I sail o'er sea deep.
…
The wind is up, to home I race,
While in my mind still lurks her face.
I shut my eyes, stay in the real,
But my memories I can't conceal.
…
But then, at last, sleep takes my soul,
Onto the wood my body rolls.
I see it all, I hear her voice,
I see what ended by my choice.
…
But then I wake, upon the sea,
Alone once more, in entropy.
My bearings, I think, am I now lost?
Has slumber reaped a mighty cost?
…
But I cry I hear from flying bird,
Above a seagull, here to herd.
I sign that I am near to land,
Near to Hyrule, home so grand.
…
So on I sail, and it flies,
The bird above in cloudless skies.
And as I take my boat along,
Within my mind, I hear her song.
…
And finally, on land I tread,
Free from the sea, and free from dread.
But an echo in my mind is heard,
I turn around and see the bird.
…
In but a moment, takes to wing,
While in my mind, still hear her sing.
Says, "look for me within your dreams."
I stand alone, in sunlight's gleam.
