A lifetime commitment To distant hopes, A fall to the depth Of the ever-sloping slopes. Everyday we search for eternal love, Forever young the inevitable temptation But forever the sky remains above Evidence of desirous human emotions. Forever can be enjoyed Like a fountain of one’s desires, Forever can be feared Like Hell’s eternal fires. Forever is a fantasy of the mind And an eternal torment to the heart Forever is depleting any resemblance of our kind Yet we seek forever as it tears us apart.
We are so obessesed with forever which blinds us from remembering that we are temporal residents in bodies we occupy.
