Forever is an intriguing concept

My stash of "sentimental" poems is "stashed away". Maybe, a shrink will have a field day about why I hesitate to show it to others. :) This one is fine cos it's more of a "I no longer care" thing. Very "in".

Forever is a long time

You threw it away in a second

an empty word that taunts

a promise not meant to be kept

Forever is a long time

It’s funny how the months we spent,

now seem longer than a lifetime;

no, no, not even worth a second

Forever is a long time

To be holding grudges

you are just a nasty memory

but the lesson you taught

will be remembered

and I will be grateful that....

forever....is a long time...

Thank you for making me realise ...that...

forever...is too long a time... to waste on you...
