Poetry: Impermanence
Like the seasons that come and go
Life itself is not permanent
It comes in cycles, then carries on
It doesn’t care about how much you’re hurting
Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring
Will come again, and leave again
Your mother, your father, your siblings to
Will one day leave, and so will you
Nothing material in this world will last
We are born with nothing, and we leave with nothing
Your morals, your soul, your compassion, and your past
Are what people will remember
Sunsets and Sunrises will paint stories across the sky.
Day and Night will flip the switch again and again.
The Sun and Moon will change places, repeating this
Sequence over and over, until it is over.
Like the seasons that come and go,
Nothing is permanent.
