Everything Dies



Like the heady rush of a brand new love
Like pain inflicted by a paper cut
Like a brief escape from the ordinary
Everything is momentary

Like the glowing embers of a campfire
Like the sun burning brightly in our sky
Like each and every life we create
Everything has an expiry date

Like the buds on a tree in early spring
Like a newborn lamb struggling to his feet
Even this planet on which our futures lie
Everything is born to die
