Shambolic plans fell apart,
Good intentions littered the room:
A trip hazard for the guilty few,
Who slowly skulked from the scene.

Heads in sand, denial all around,
Perfection to destruction in a flash.
But any fool could have seen:
Tempests and typhoons cannot be tamed.

Romance is hard to resist,
A sense of so-called fate seductive
To those who believe they are social architects,
Born to build beautiful bridges.

They were lost in dramatic love,
Perspective gone and focus blurred,
They loved, they hated, they loved, they hated and loved again,
'Til today's events terminated
this tragi-comic tale.
