Forever

Forever is not so far away, when we think in the meaning of days

My minutes on earth will dwindle and the sand in the glass will fall thin

These moments will become a measure of what kind of life I have lived

Success counted in love and pain, while cold currency is cast away

Forever is somewhere deep in your mind, embedded in all your memories of me

My legacy lives in the big brown eyes of babies and old photographs

As time goes on your tears will dry and you will learn to let the sorrow be

The sunlight will turn cold as the first winter morning, but you will find hope

ll things will bloom once again just as we had in life, frost bitten bud’s first taste of spring

giving meaning to those we leave behind, another chance at forever.
