A Day Winds Down

A day winds down
  So, too, a week
  a month, a year
  a decade, a century
A career winds down too
  Even a love affair
     and a life...
Where do these things wind up?

They become buried beneath the ashes of fallen stars, in an abyss of broken dreams, or floating in the memories of our heartstrings. You give ample food for thought, Gershon.
