My boyfriend worked offshore on the oil rigs. I would iron his uniforms for him before he had to leave for three weeks. I would write these little poems and tuck them in all his pockets. Every time he put on a shirt or pair of pants he would find.
While you work out on the ocean so blue
I will be constantly thinking of you
As I wake up each morning my heart will say
Our love is growing stronger day after day.
*********************************************************
I’ll look into your eyes, I know I’ll see
Just how much our love is meant to be
When you leave out there getting closer to shore
I’m waiting for you, loving you even more
*************************************************************
I guess right now I seem so far away
So in your thoughts, hold me close each day
Brighter days has just begun
My dreams are with you as you rise with the sun
And if there’s any stars shooting across the sky at night
Those are the ones that I’m wishing to hold you tight
Even to hold you or just feel your touch
You needing me and wanting me just as much.
**************************************************************
When you lay down at night and it only just seems
When you close your eyes.
“May I Always Be Your Dreams”
*************************************************************
As I wake up each morning feeling so a new
My thoughts will be constantly thinking of you
The way you make me feel, Oh so right
Just like a star in the brightest night.
Thinking of you holding me I feel so secure
Makes me keep loving you even more
The feelings I get from each message you sent
Is a Power of Love that will never end.

When his three week shift was up and when he came home he asked me to marry him.
