Nothing Lasts

Life seemed to be so beautiful 
when thy was by my side,
Such strange was the addiction
That made my heart pound with pride


Pride not about myself but you
Through the emotions triggered by sound
Passing of every minute had the pain grew
With the feeling of relief such profound


It felt as the purgation of my soul
But for a moment so brief
Coz when her words stop
My tender heart turns calloused


Its a moment of life I re-live every night
Through her melodies playing on
But as the source of music loses its light
The moment of peace is gone


This moment is what that makes me realise
That Nothing Lasts in a period of time
Its all upon us whether to adore or despise
So Think about your mistakes done in quarantine
