Eternity

Eternity,
Is what we dream happiness of,

Eternity,
Is what the world stands upon,

Eternity,
Is what our old memories live to be,

Eternity,
Is what we thought our love would be,

Eternity,
Is what our promises used to assure us,

Eternity,
Is what we expected of kindness to shower on us,

Eternity,
Is a lie which we tell ourselves,

Eternity,
Is what we all thought we had.
