Noth<strong>in</strong>g Lasts Forever<br />
When we first met,<br />
She was a sh<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g beauty,<br />
Brighter and warmer<br />
Than the sun do<strong>in</strong>g its duty.<br />
Her beauty fades,<br />
My hard muscles soften,<br />
And we don’t say<br />
“I love you” as often.<br />
Her angelic voice<br />
And resplendent smile<br />
Lit up the world<br />
Like the joy of a child.<br />
We cherish our child,<br />
So we stay together,<br />
Deny<strong>in</strong>g this truth:<br />
Noth<strong>in</strong>g lasts forever.<br />
But now, here we are<br />
With many a year passed<br />
Reluctant to accept<br />
That true love doesn’t last.<br />
