What's Forever For

Just thinking about forever....

Those words seem dear and precious at the time,
Enough just a line of speech with a sweet crime.
Day's, month's and years pass and they end today,
The words spoken always claim forever you say.

The heart beats true and the love felt so strong,
Time passes and the words still remain, so long.
Ships passing attract the attention for a new breath,
Although chances will be just another word death.

I often wonder what the point of saying you promise,
When we both know that the words spoke you'll end us.
So why tell me you promise our love will never end,
When we both know words are just words to spend.

Honest and logical thoughts on love.
"So why tell me you promise our love will never end,
When we both know words are just words to spend."
The above lines are true but hope is the last wish we keep. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry. I liked this one.

Romance and love... Still I feel the world today just forgot that words DO mean something. Instead feelings and emotions seem to be more evident to being disposable in greed...

Thanks for your review.

I agree. Romance is a myth. World had turn too fast and you are welcome.

Like the idea of this write. Sadly nothing is promised forever. All things will end, some breaking our hearts. Valentine

Yea seems to be moreso as the time moves forward. Just promises in the dark without meaning or care. A world growing cold.

My husband promised me forever, he passed away in 2013. Some promises just cannot be kept. Kathie

I remember.... in my case its the words used in relationships. Meaningless dribbles.
