Forever is where friendships go to die,
Where birds lost in sunsets fly.
Where relationships that I did invest,
Found its place and decided to rest. Bonds of love that would break “never”.
So it’s hard to reply when people ask,
“Do you believe in forever?”
Is it a word we even understand?
Eternity stretching without an end?
But we reduce to symbol and word.
Forever reduced to a sound that can be heard.
Compacted into a nice small clause.
Ignoring the word keeps going without pause.
Do we really understand words like “love” and “never”?
Yet even less we understand words like “forever”.
