He told me his name was Forever And I believed him to the very end He said I was his only sun Then I was left with an eclipse He was everything a maiden dreamed of And the ancient one only remembers I tried to hold on to the promise But the mist of my mind disolved thought Today is at forevers end and nothing beyond I've climbed the mountain to the top But can't use the same foot holds to come down It all started when he said his name was Forever |

Mother Earth, I really enjoyed reading this, though the feelings behind it is not in the least enjoyable... "I've climbed the mountain to the top But can't use the same foot holds to come down" This is what happens when we're given false hopes, isn't it?? First, they make us so happy, it feels like we're on the top of the world. When this platform of 'hope' vanishes, we plummet to rock bottom. Unpleasant...

Sudhir, thanks for your answer Mon Cherie, I see you understand. But we keep looking for another Forever. |

I've climbed the mountain to the top But can't use the same foot holds to come down! Very nicely written. Glenn Logan |

Glenn, Seymour and owgman: seems we all like the view from the top of the mountain and don't worry about the climb down. Thanks all! |
