What Forever Means
It wasn’t that long ago We were saying our goodbyes But I never got to say thank you For all the things that you taught me Most importantly what forever means At least when it came to me and you It means until you’re tired And don’t want to play anymore Or until I’m useless And you’ve got all your kicks Was it forever until you’re done Or forever until you’re bored? So tell me the truth Did you ever really care? Did you love me when you held me? Did you just use me like the others? And toss me when I was spent? Now in the end I know That it’s all for the best We’re probably both much happier And moving on with our lives But still the questions linger Like a shadow cast long before For the life of me I’ll never understand How forever can be so brief Just until you’re hurting Just until it’s not easy anymore Or until someone better comes along Is it forever until I’m broke Or forever until you let it die? But tell me the truth Did any of it matter to you? Or was it just another cheap thrill? was everything you said a lie? Just like happily ever after and forever Written December 28th, 2001 © on Dec 28 2001 04:20 AM PST 18 • 0 • 1
