Fighting Circumstance

Lake Michigan from Harrington Beach State Park

The waves crash regularly upon the Lake Michigan shore:

Emblems of time, of its ever-fixed, immutable course.

Victims, we are doomed to forever separate, the

Eternity of memory swiftly approaching.

So, I just wanted to let you know,

As we stand on the cold sand

That our time may be lost,

But our love is not.

I still love

You.
