**Forever Is a Lie**

''Not in illusions of Eternal Youth''

We speak of forever, as if time stands still,

A promise unbroken, a dream we will fulfill,

But in the dance of days and fleeting hours,

Forever is a lie, a fragile tower.

We chase the echoes of an endless song,

Believing in a love that can’t go wrong,

Yet moments drift like shadows in the sun,

What once was forever is now undone.

The stars may shine, the moon may guide,

So let us cherish fleeting days and nights,

For forever is a lie that dims the lights.

Elegy
