Hold back the tide

verb phrase: Trying to stop something that is clearly inevitable or already unstoppable. Putting effort into controlling a situation that has moved beyond anyone’s ability to stop it—often while pretending things are still under control. Like standing on the shore believing you can keep the ocean from coming back in: you might delay it for a moment, but the tide always returns.
“Once the news hit social media, trying to keep it quiet was like trying to hold back the tide.”

A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread! — Lovers who have their priorities exactly right. At a certain point all we have are the memories we create together. You don’t need much else.

Husband:

“A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou.”

Wife:

A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou — hold the bread! And if there’s no wine, all I need in this moment is you.
