so good to be by your side
But we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think it's just cause we're young
And we'll feel so alive
 
when the storm is raging and thunder rolls deliever rust from the oceans to save our souls
 

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
 
"O Captain, My Captain" is about America's acknowledgement of Abraham Lincoln as the leader of their country. The poet uses metaphors to express his ideas. He uses "captain" as Abraham Lincoln. The "ship" is the civil war. He refers to the civil war as the "victor ship". This makes sense because Lincoln serves as the commander of the civil war. At the end of the first verse, Lincoln dies while "bleeding drops of red". "From fearful trip the victor ship comes in the with object won." Whitman focuses on that right after the Civil war ends, Lincoln dies. He does that with the poem too, by saying, "The port is near" and then later saying "where on the deck the captain lies, fallen cold and dead." Whitman also refers to Lincoln as a father, because he is the father of his nation. The speaker of the poem does not want to believe that the captain is dead, by saying, "My Captain does not answer his lips pale and still, My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will." But then, sadly, he realizes that the captain will not come back.
