Wandering the ocean in search of lands I’ve never seen before, I encountered a fearful storm.

It seemed so dark and vicious, but what’s more
It looked as if it was undoubtedly… warm.

 And then I gave myself an oath:
I promised my uneasy mind that I will tame the storm,

That I will make it mine for both –
The calmness of the ocean and my stricken form.

But therefore, I found myself in loss of actions
In haste to catch it

I forgot how scary it could be
Alas, there are not enough distractions

That could be provided by the likes of me.
The ocean’s vast and fearful and no less,

But even more so are the darkened skies.
If only lighting was mine to possess,

I would undoubtedly pierce your cloudy eyes.
I want to see them lighting up

I want to see not only warmness, but also fire
Burning there, within their depths.
