I'm
sailing
Pensive dude
Sheer solitude
troubled attitude
My love has gone away
Away I'm afraid to stay
Ergo, I'm floating in sorrow
knowing there'll be no bright tomorrow
No peace and quiet which I can borrow

Like the etheree, like the way you've made it look like a sailors hat.
At first, it seems serene but there is sorrow there. And I guess it's very possible to sail into sorrow. It's isn't all peace when you are sailing.
Nice write
