My first lyrics ever

Just wrote this earlier. Please criticize.

Through all these times of storms and moonless nights,
you've been an anchor.
I've been pushing to keep what I got left
and holding back to keep what I thought was forever.
It's never forever.
You've been holding me down, but now I'm done holding back.
This ship is finally gonna set sail.
These moonlit nights are all I need.
Not a cloud in the sky, nor fear in sight.
These moonlit nights are all I need.
The sky is clear, the air is fresh.
There is not one anchor, that will ever take my strength.
Forever is gone, but all hope is near.
This ship is gonna is gonna keep sailing without pain, sorrow, or the anchors I once feared.
I let those anchors go a long time ago.

I like the figurative language, but I wish it was longer!
