Nothing lasts forever

'Cause nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain

 

 

 

 

Nothing lasts forever

 

 

“And when your fears subside and shadows still remain”

Dark places floating in rear view mirror journeys

on empty highways, slick and cold but in the past

Within my hand I hold you, warmth finds the place,

leaving behind the sorrow on leaf covered shoulders

 

“I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame”

 

Taken upon my soul, those incisions of pain, deep

Draped on heavy sighs and forward motions

Cast aside, tossed for loss, rendered useless

and my heart sings for you, come to me for I shall love you

 

“So never mind the darkness we still can find a way”

Shrouded in worry, clouded escapes stood firmly

Together we can draw back these curtains, embroidered blankets,

revealing the next hillside spilling a sunrise

in bright smiles and good memories rejoicing

 

“'Cause nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain”

No, it doesn't last forever (as I sit here on the bright November day...).

[Jack...]

Thank you Marie...sitting here as well.

[Pryde Foltz]

A really lovely and well-crafted piece, my friend.

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Pryde.

Nothings worse than being in that lonely state when someone so dear is not there. Moments have no vitality and life seems cold. Somewhere inside there's always a plea for hope. Sometimes things change, sometimes they don't. True, nothing lasts forever.

Thanks so much Relic, I appreciate you stopping by.

[Cassie]

[Jack...]

I was wondering what is the relevance of the video with this wonderful poem. So wise and true and as humans we hold on to changeless as memories of the past pains and hurts. But the hearts can always change in either direction...A sad but a relevant reality to so many people...Grazie Mille...:)................
