Where the child can be free

Untitled (as of so far so if someone could help me, it would be much appreciated)

Is that you? said I with empty eyes
  The storm asked who else it could be.
You could be a storm, as I felt the wind.
  How dare you suggest that of me!

I followed with my crooked smile
as we walked out towards the sea
and the storm became excited for
what it thought would be.

the air here, it is different
it seems a little salty.
  Do you imply I've led you astray?
  How dare you suggest that of me!

So I fixed my gaze, stared straight ahead
though my eyes, they could not see
and with my same old crooked smile
I made the storm follow me.

  Just a few more steps, said the storm,
  and I promise you'll be happy
I nodded. And if not, I said,
at least I will be free

I stood at sandy bank and
thanked the storm so kindly
  Just a few more steps and then
  the world will be perfect to thee.

My head still broke the surface
as I was pulled down by the sea
I smiled the same crooked smile and said,
How dare you suggest that of me!
