Nothing Ever Lasts

As nothing ever lasts,
and everything must change;
you are here, moving fast,
as a needy counting his wage.

As you listen to all, 
and talk only to few; 
you will never fall,
that’s what I already knew.

As the summer coming soon,
and there is no need for you to crack;
you’ll be dancing Under moon,
as you are not getting back

A very, very well written piece acknowledging a very harsh & not always accepted truth. Excellent job!
