I Can't Change It

I wondered if I could stay there longer.

If I could witness the love and pain that was supposed to flow after an hour.

If there would be politics or humanity.

I was feeling attached to all those around me.

How can I leave those innocent children there to die? How can I let them go into the mouth of death, knowing everything but I had to leave as I cannot change the past.

I rotated my wristwatch and the lighted engulfed me. I left the titanic and returned to the present.
