Forever
To each beginning there is given an end
For everything that once blossoms must wither away
The sun once risen must eventually set
And a curtain of darkness shrouds the light of the day
The sands of time are the cruellest of all
They show no mercy nor heed any call
All creation will fade into dust
Nothingness will devour both evil and just
Yet from this dust shall hope be reborn
The seedlings of life the earth shall adorn
Where death brought an end life shall pen new lines
The hourglass shall turn, the sand marking a new time
Everything that began must sometime end
And everything that ended shall begin anew
All creation into a circle shall blend
How perfect the miracle, the mystery, the truth.

hey Karen,
the cycle is so true... "dust thou art and to dust thou shalt return" ... so true... strange when u think abt it isnt it... as in even in the worst of situations theres always a hope ... n even in the most confident of situations theres a faint fear... fear that something may go wrong... man everything is so "NOT absolute" ... strange eh...
