A Pirate’s Life For Me | Original Story Aesthetic
Gather ‘round, mateys, and you’ll hear a tall tale of a man who slipped the hangman’s noose and stole another man’s sails.

Their alliance forged on the sea balanced on threads as loose as the rope from which he did flee.

But there are no innocent hearts on the sea ‘cause that’s the pirates life, for you and for me.

“It was worth it,” he thought as he sailed through the churning waters unaware of the loose net at the ship’s side.
“It was worth it,” she thought as she sank into the deep; until a rope net from a passing ship swept over her shoulder like a lover’s tease.
