Nothing Lasts Forever
You told me once
nothing lasts forever
I did not believe you.
I believed in fairy tales
Elf and dragon and phoenix
I did not believe you.
I believed in dreams
From which to never wake
I did not believe you.
I believed that True Love
Conquers all with a kiss
I did not believe you.
I believed in words
Saying I love you
I did not believe you.
I believed in hands
Touching me in secret places
I did not believe you.
I believed in giving all
and all would be given
I did not believe you.
You told me once
I should have believed you.

Don't believe him. Don't believe the many who repeat his excuses. Believe in you and embrace your beliefs, one day they will come true.
Another marvelous poem!
While nothing lasts forever, all things not given a beginning can never achieve the climax just before their restful end.
