And Nothing Lasts Forever

By mysticventures




I've seen the writing on the wall

Ancient handprints -

Large and small


Echo's of souls -

Hear them call

Of ages past -

Rise and fall


Faded pictures -

Tell it all

I've seen the writing on the wall

And I know that -


Nothing

Lasts

Forever

    I liked this piece a lot. The flow was original and you made it your own. The message is universal. Sad but glorious in its truth. Elegant words here. Good work hun. -Glass
