Not Time Nor Tide
Time like Tide, or so they say,
can wash all trace of things away.
But Time cannot wash from my heart
the aching left when some depart.
No Tide that washed upon the shore
could cleanse the wounds that time has bore.
The pain of loss of those held dear,
not Tide nor Time can disappear.
Yet with the ache, resides a love
that transcends all and flies above
erosion caused by Time and Tide,
in unison with those who’ve died.
So pain and loss go hand in hand
with love and comfort as we stand
alone, together, close but far,
for everywhere is where we are.
Time and Tide, or so they say,
can wash all trace of things away.
But Time nor Tide can keep apart
those Souls who share a common heart.
