A Coast Guard Marriage

A Coast Guard Marriage
You stand at the dock watching his ship pull away,
You feel in your heart a little voice say:
'I Love You. I need You. I want you to stay.'
He stands on the deck, watching you too
His world falls apart, he wants to be with you.
He feels his heart breaking, his eye sheds a tear,
The only thing now he wants is you near.
The only thing that keeps her from falling apart,
Is the thought of her husband kept close to her heart.
Out on the deck he stands still in rain,
Praying for the ocean to swallow his pain.
A golden streak of heaven shines down from above,
But he remembers to be strong for the woman he loves.
After so many months his ship finally pulls in,
Her heart skips a beat when she spots his wide grin.
They throw their arms around each other in the tightest embrace,
Their hearts are free as they feel their pulse race.
Yours surely must have been a match made from above,
Because this Coast Guard Marriage is a test of true love.
