I was once younger and more nieve, and dumbfounded in Love with my boyfriend who said "nothing lasts forever" I don't even remember how the conversation started, I don't know what we were doing, all I remember is him saying "nothing lasts forever" over and over in my head. I didn't respond I just starred ahead and was thinking. We went out for 5 1/2 years then it ended and I felt like it was an I told you so in my face.
But I didn't want to believe it I understand that we have many relationships through out our lives and we learn and grow from them. You can't base this statement on a relationship...if we all looked at the stats we would understand. But then as things went on I noticed more and more that all around me things were not lasting forever.
I know we all have to die at sometime but I think I have been to too many funerals! This just makes me understand why nothing lasts forever.
My school ended and friends started parting. My dance ended and we stopped traveling. I changed jobs and it was just different. My family changes often I have been the youngest the oldest and the middle child. I have had many father figures. I have had grandparents and then they were gone...Yet they have not died.
Why when something is so good and makes you so happy does it have to come to an end? Why is it that nothing lasts forever?
And its not that I can't go hang out with those friends or go on other trips, but its not the same. I could call my family and try and make it work. Its hard, Its new, its different, its not the comfort we had before.
Everyday the words "nothing lasts forever" goes through my head. Everyday I fear that its going to be my last with you.
