High Winds

I am out on the seas in the wind and rain,
And being away for so many days brings me so much pain,
Being away from wife and kids,  it  hurts me to the core,
And i never really felt like this any time before,
As i hear the thunder crashing in my head,
I just feel so tired i want to go to bed,
as the waves come crashing into our little boat,
i really pray to god above he keeps us all afloat,
These are some of the struggles we go through in our life,
But lets all keep our chin up and hope for a bit of light
