It Doesn't Last Forever
by Madeline Shea
It comes to you but leaves in the blink of an eye
It may be gone from you forever or it may be back in a short while
Nevertheless, it hurts you more than words can describe
Because it takes up everything in me and clings around my insides
It fills my brain
Its what keeps me sane
It fills my heart
It will never depart
Although it has been lost
It forever stays there
Keeping my mind crisscrossed
Not letting it go elsewhere
I want to go back home
But I cannot do that
My emotions fall flat
And I begin to roam
Hopefully it will come to me soon again
But for now, its emotions horror over you
You may feel dark inside, however light will come soon
Don't dwell on it or it will crush you
