The timing wasn’t right,
But then – is it ever?
So many plans on hold
Until the twelfth of never.
Schemes and dreams all squashed,
Swept out to sea so fast
What they had got lined up
Like history, now is past
Tidal waves still flood the mind,
The horror, daily comes to visit.
The hopelessness of those poor souls,
To just have fun was their requisite
The ones who came by chance
Looked fate into it’s eye.
Whilst others booked their journey,
Well before the tide was high.
Disastrous though it was,
Gladly some lives were saved.
Such lucky ones indeed.
For whom destiny’s path was paved.
Alas, it’s thought provoking
And it proves the sea is cruel.
This greater force around us
Is such a powerful tool.
