Literature Text

For the time when we wished was the slowest
Or the distance we hoped had been the shortest
Reasoning the present that we held in our hands
Every moment of the past which lead to now
Varying emotions that change the course of paths
Enough just for us to open our eyes to catch
Racing heartbeats for the exit which opens.

Fear before the next step we bet our future
Overlapping memories replay constantly haunt
Reversed chances in time due to fast forward
Enveloped in lapse of repetitive calculations
Vanity endorsed environment surrounds our conscience
Enigmatic willpower has its strength questioned
Reserved silence answers our wavering believes.

Fewer than the fingers we count the possibility
Only thoughts we dared dream in our minds secretly
Roving in the finite life that our breath allows us
Eager to carve our mark along the line of history
Vital beauty that only you and I can see in sight
Embraced in the depths where it is the darkest
Returning to the light that is never forever.

A simple poem entitled "Forever" but could be interpreted in two mindsets - whether you believe in "forever" or you do not. I wrote these stanzas to state, to question and to answer my curiosity in the idea of "Forever." I want to explore the meaning behind it, and to expose the concept of it.

What do you feel or see when you read "Forever"? Do you agree or what do you have to disagree with? Please share your opinions, as I am ever curious.
