Free man, you'll always love the sea — for this, That it's a mirror, where you see your soul In its eternal waves that chafe and roll; Nor is your soul less bitter an abyss. In your reflected image there to merge, You love to dive, its eyes and limbs to match. Sometimes your heart forgets its own, to catch The rhythm of that wild and tameless dirge. ~ Charles Baudelaire, Man and the Sea
