Forever
What does the word “forever” mean
If it’s not for eternity
What hope lie’s in “always”
If it’s no further than we can see
How is it that “never”
Always seem’s to come about
Why is it that promises
Leave much room for doubt
Where can we find comfort
When the rules so quickly change
How can we proceed in faith
when our world is filled with pain
How often are our hopes and dreams
Found in pieces on the ground
Who can wish for honor
When integrity can’t be found
It all seem’s so hopeless
When bound by many rules
Written by the jokers
and administered by fools
And then there are our leaders
Who say the rules do not apply
To themselves and their conspirators
Or the judges that they buy
It’s no wonder I’ve no faith
in anything anymore
I turn and walk away
When it come’s knocking at my door
