Why do things always need to end Good or bad, I will lose a friend There’s no way to stop the change Things were new and now they’re strange I love you and I always have. Why is roaming the calmest salve. You set me in a timeless stone When I woke I was sad, alone I might have broken from my shell Seems that things were always well I was firm you were flowing I was lost you were showing Why do things always need to end Hearts, when broken always mend Seems like love would never leave Slowly seeps when we grieve Hearts are barren from distrust Why things end? They simply must. |

There is much truth in your words, Walt. Sometimes it is simply for the best. Very well expressed! All writing comes |

Oh Walty, this is wonderful, and as they say I guess, "nothing last's forever" sad though. Hugs Maree |
