Question

from Serenity

The storms that break and sweep about my feet, The winds that blow and tear, the rains that fall, Shall not the courage of my soul appall; I shall be conqueror, tho' sore defeat O'erwhelm the outbound keels of all my fleet Of dreams; tho' not one tattered sail, but all Go down mid sea; with heart serene, I'll greet The worst or best, the stronger for the squall.
