Analysis of Nothing Lasts Forever

upon a labyrinth of time

in corridors stark and deep

within a starry sleep

abounding in midnight blues

that departed kiss

on the back of a memory

when life was simple

and the dream was alive

Unveiling a desirable notion

beguiled at the thorn

at the onset of no return

divided by the passage of time

and a foretaste of what’s to come  

that ill-wanting feeling  

that got away

rehearsed in a dream

within a vague theme  

seduced by the desires of youth   

in the infinity of space

and left for want  

hasting with bitterness  

from the other side of the world

at the forefront of fruition

'til your being

sojourned from a fantasy

in a surreal enchantment

guiding my soul

within a black embrace

to fill that  

vacated promise of long ago

at the impasse  

abiding in doubt,

with me again

as your words  

tendered the escapade  

of my life  

Seems like only   

when you called  

out to me  

and the world   

in the stillness

of your hold

and in between  

that I’d begin to wonder

why your distance parts  

when you're near me

And where it was   

when you first kissed me  

and held me in your arms  

and told me   

that you loved me

Excruciatingly waking at the fold

without your hold

as birds calm that bewildered sensation

of loss and found

Nothing lasts forever  

you and I are bound together  

in a timeless span

within a song and dance

that'll never be,

O nothing lasts forever
