Nothing Last Forever

By Akili G Jimo

Flashing back to the time;

Love was new and fine

Echoing thousand words that delights;

Timeless bliss of joy day and night

Laughter of a sweet melody;

Excites like of writer’s parody

Dreams with a countless heartbeats;

Songs connecting those beats

Endless promises, seems to never fade;

Feeling that of Heaven’s made

Having no fear of what come may;

Forgetting what future will pay

Feeling lost in love like never

Knowing not, “Nothing lasts forever”

Turning back now to the time;

Love is not worth a dime

Once an unbreakable chain of love;

But changes that made to rove

No longer hold the grip;

Like a fall of a trip

Thoughts of a lifelong dreams;

Written on the mind of long reams

Seems shattered to dust;

As it was left to rust

Sceptic heart that broke so down;

In an ocean of tears to drown

Feelings that’s gone like ever;

Finally realising, “Nothing lasts forever”.
