You know your destination
And prepare for any eventuality
But when a tsunami strikes
Changing the whole scenario
The journey becomes harder
As you lose your bearings
The way is lost in the giant waves
That touch the sky
Obscuring everything
You flounder in the deep water
Hoping to catch a glimmer of light in darkness
Nerves of Steel are needed to keep going
Or perhaps a heart that never looses hope?

A scary thought to face a tsunami literally or figuratively. Such a nice poem.

With hope we are strong and can face what comes. Maybe not with nerves of steel, but with the assurance we will see the sunshine again.
