Change of Tide

Change of Tide

Life is not always what it seems.
One pebble makes a ripple, a wave, tsunami

Shattered dream floats in a stream,
Tears damn dam

Internal isolation, finger slammed
Heart wrenched, what a jam

Floating, floating dreams a dying, can't stop crying, bereaved, pining for Mourning the lost which can't be found, 

Change of Tide, changes, change embraced, mending, needles sewing bits together, all's not lost.... Change of Tide
