Myth

[Whiskurz]

Though forever seemed so far away
A promise that we both chose
We'd follow the rules that life demands
And see how far it goes

To live on love, our only plan
How could we go wrong?
As each day passed we grew apart
Forever's not that long

A million kisses gone to waste
The product of a lie
Love's a gift that's made to last
It's not supposed to die

We tried our best to see it through
To rewrite history
But now each time they write of love
It won't mention you and me

Though legend we were meant to be
We'll ever be remembered with
The likes of Romeo and Juliet
Forever just a myth

Masterfully done, the pain of things was evident and all too relatable. Seems like forever is all too often fornever

Forever was the hope of Narrator and his love. That had to be a beautiful time while they were living those moments. As each day passed, they grew apart even though they tried to see it through, rewrite history. On the way to forever, their lives changed. The sadness came with change. Hopefully Narrator will live to see the sadness fade and embrace the joy of love again. Congrats on the spotlight.
