Sorrow the pirate414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwFvERk5DT

Twas about to walk,

The mighty wooden plank

With shackled wrists414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxJVnck1oD

And legs the same,

To ensure that Sorrow sank

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgQvecuxac

The journey short

Though long in stride,

Consumed the light of day

As step by step

His feet did walk,

To death, Sorrow made way

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFXHLozDNZ

"Ah, faster now

You swine of man,

You see away the sun."

"For when it goes,

Then so shall you.

Your life, this day, be done."

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ8ImLdJHp

Then Sorrow turned,

To face the man

Belching out words aloud

Then veered his eyes

Up to the sky

And let silence weigh the crowd

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fjSOwO304

The clouds did part

And shown the sun

The heat did sweat his brow

Then cool breeze blew

Against his skin

And whistled through the prow

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6csytzVNf

A moments rest

Relaxing breath

Time seemed to disappear

With enemies

Sentencing death

His ship, they commandeer

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRB1rDkPgU

Then memories

From all his life

Did flash before his eyes

Remembering

Both good and bad

The crowd spoke out, chastised

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpEQJdsh6Z

"Speak now yar words

Soon lifeless one,

Plead mighty, to the gods."

Sorrow stayed still

His mouth not move,

He stand weighing the odds

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0gcLURyZD

The sun still crept

To hiding place,

Devoured by the ocean

"Lets shoot him first

Help weigh him down!"

One man started, commotion

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzHoWfTVdD

A settled cheer

All with, agreed

Bullet, to be embed

Muskets loaded

Then aimed up north

Explosions marked for head

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPiQsOyEg0

The powder packed

And fuses lit

Sorrow, a choice, must make

Death by the sea

Or from the gun

Which would a hero take

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPBLcWXWr2

His chains were tight

To strong to free

If jump, he'd surely drown

While bullets burn

Destroy the flesh

A corpse, not fit a crown

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvhcwfMZVL

The sun slipped down

Then came a shot

Bullet escaping gun

And Sorrow dove

Into the sea

Action, not be undone

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZmgP2W02E

Unknown whether

The bullet struck

Sorrow still lost his life

And left behind

A story sung

In duet, with the fife

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD1d9bpG4n

Though stories told

To entertain

Are far misunderstood

For Sorrow found

Treasure so great

No pirate ever would

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oyyJJ3NEo

On life, he held

So desperately

Until sea bottom reached

His eyes witnessed

A marveled site

Such hoard, never was preached

414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ndQPQcNGu

And so it's said

Throughout the world

In pirates' tales of old

Find Sorrow bound

And set him free

Then you shall find the gold414Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0KVt8liQU
