Fair Maiden

A maiden all on her own,
a journey to last a lifetime;
to be the first - a place in history...
to be the last - history certain.
No one expected its fate,
no one imagined their plight;
the cold depths hides the tragedy,
the stories... never hidden.
One hundred years not forgotten,
a maiden on a voyage...
always remains a maiden.
