First poem

Was clearing up my inbox when I found an email from him which he sent to me a month ago, with a poem :)


Loving a sailor is a high price to pay

Loving him truly is hard when he's away

Its being alone with nothing to hold,

its being young, yet feeling so old

Its having him whisper his love for you,

its whispering back that you love him too

There comes a kiss and a promise for more,

as his ship slowly pulls away from the shore

Reluctantly, painfully, letting him go

While your insides are dieing from wanting him so

Watching him leave with eyes full of tears

Standing alone with your hopes, dreams, and fears

Its sending a letter with the stamp upside down

To a far away love in a far away town

Days go by slowly, how many have passed?

Then suddenly you realize its here at last

Remember he's thinking of you everyday

He's sad and he's lonely while so far away

So love him and miss him and hold your head high

Be strong and have faith, wipe that tear from your eye

Your man is a seafarer, like that old ancient trader

Its a high price to pay for loving a sailor.
Thanks sayang.
