I am a ship on the ocean I have fought against the waves to come to you;    A buoy on the ocean, And I still fight the waves to remain next to you. But I have fought the waves so long that      my strength is waning. If you push me away and away and away, eventually I will float away, and not come back. |

Maybe I should make it a "lighthouse buoy".
Or just a "lighthouse in the ocean."
The poem had intended to be more eloquent initially, and more poignant (with better diction).
Maybe someday I will improve upon it.
