Have we met at the right time? Two lovers, who are oceans apart.
We have just started to be together,
But I have let you down recently.
Unlike other guys that pursue you,
I can’t give enough time
I can’t give enough attention
There are times that you’re down and want me beside you, but here I am a thousand miles away.
I’m not always there to hug you
I’m not always there to hold you
And promise that I will always be there
Most of the time
I only see your smile in pictures
Know your feelings
Through words on a screen
Hear your voice
In the lagging audio of slow internet
But I endured it all, because I love you
Until that day
That I finally came home from the sea
And saw your beautiful face for the first time
I was speechless, in awe of such a wonderful woman
And the few hours we spent
Talking by the bay, overlooking the sunset
Was one of the best hours of my life
Then eventually it was time to go
Not knowing how often we would see each other again
I know it is hard
For a seaman to love a seawoman
That both has passion for the sea
And I am very sorry
That I cannot fulfill most of your desires
But of all the things I lack, one thing that I can promise
Is to give you my loyalty, in times that we are apart
And I will always love you from the bottom of my heart.
