In the heart of a seaman, a restless flame burns,

A yearning for horizons, where the ocean's call returns.

From port to port, he sails, a nomad on the tide,

The depths of his soul forever bound to the ocean's side.

With salt-kissed air and a compass as his guide,

He sets sail on a vessel, his dreams held inside.

The rhythm of the waves, a symphony of his soul,

As he heeds the siren's song, to the sea, he's whole.

In the twilight's embrace, the ocean whispers a tale,

Of ancient lore and secrets, buried in the watery vale.

The moon's gentle caress guides him through the night,

A sailor's silent partner, a beacon shining bright.

The stars above, like shimmering constellations divine,

Guide him through tempests, like a celestial sign.

His vessel, an extension of his spirit's wild song,

Navigating mysteries, where the sea and sky belong.

Through storms and calm, he seeks treasures untold,

Not mere gold and silver, but stories to behold.

For in the depths, where the abyss unfolds,

He finds a mirror to his soul, a tale yet to be told.

The ocean, his canvas, where dreams set sail,

His heart, like a compass, refusing to fail.

The seafarer's spirit, unyielding and bold,

A testament to his love, a story to be told.

Yet, in the depths of his being, a pull he cannot resist,

A subconscious urge, where the ocean's enchantment persists.

For deep within his core, an ancient memory stirs,

A longing for the sea, like an echo that endures.

With every gust of wind and every cresting wave,

He finds solace and freedom, from the life he craves.

The siren's lure, his constant companion and guide,

To the vast expanse of the ocean, his spirit's eternal bride.

So, let us marvel at the seaman's dance with fate,

A tale of resilience, against the tempest's weight.

In the depths of his soul, the ocean's mysteries reside,

A seafarer's destiny, forever tied to the tide.
