They said that nothing good lasts forever,
But I wasn't a believer in what they said.
I told myself if it was right,
That it would last.
I told myself if it was wrong,
That it would fall apart.
All my life,
I never knew it to be wrong.
It was the same monotony,
Over and over again.
Each day repeated itself,
Each night prolonged itself,
Until it no longer did.
Until everything changed.
Sometimes all that is right begins to fall apart.
Decisions turn into regrets,
Words turn into knives,
Knives that cut the heart so deeply,
That love turns into hatred.
I was wrong about what they said,
About what I refused to believe in.
No matter the lives it may disrupt,
No matter the trauma it may cause,
No matter the heartbreak it may trigger,
Nothing good lasts forever.
It's funny how sometimes,
The things we knew to be right fall apart,
Right before our eyes.
