if i could live forever
all my friends would get old and die
before i noticed
if i was going to live forever
i'd never love you
the way i do
i'd be unmoved by fires and floods
suffering and lonliness
night or day
but i'm getting older and i can't stop
my loved ones aging like me
hard not to see this
i'm rounding each year after year
you are somewhere else
i am here
now towns burn and cities sink
breaking hearts further because
we only have each other
the selfish face the night and curse
that dark is coming
like an unstoppable tide
the heart can make bliss out of nothing
even if we have nothing
after we wasted our gifts
it all starts with the salvation
of leaving the crushing of ego
helping those in need
reclamation of self is never too late
if one looks to be kind to others
and help any way they can
then through this you will find the self
is not what you thought it was
by letting it go
