Two Ships in the night
Two Ships in the night
I wonder did we pass today, just like Two Ships in the night, did the other part of me, sail off out of sight
Did I miss the warning signs, like a lighthouse shinning in the dark, will I crash on to the rocks of loneliness because a missed loves spark
That telling smile, a nod hello, did I stand beside her on the train, was that my chance of happiness, will it come by again
Have I not met her yet, is she somewhere out there far at sea, trying to find her bearings, to set sail a course to me
Will we ever get to meet, or is a desert island just my fate, or will I find my shipmate and go out on a date
Will I be on the Love boat, or the Titanic ship of doom, will it be a romance or a ship sinking in the gloom
I hope I see your signal, send it loud and very clear, so even I can find you, so I can tell true love is near
Will I get a second chance, just a try to get things right, or are we setting sail for loneliness, like Two ships passing in the night

I believe everyone has had these questions swirling at some point... so relatable and moving... my heart aches in solidarity...
It flows like a sad river of awareness... beautiful in all the yearning want and hopefulness.
Outstanding ink, Ron.
I thank you for sharing this 💙
