Always or Never?

lk

Never apart. 

Always together.

In today's world,

The line between the two

Has grown so thin

The things people tell you

Don't really come from within

People lie to you, cheat on you, steal from you

All the while they use such 

Meaningful words

"We'll always be together" they say

"We'll never be apart" they say

But how many times

Have those sayings actually come from the heart?

I dream of a time I never lived to see

A time when never meant Not Ever

A time when always meant Eternally

Two opposite Forevers

But in today's world

Those are word's to be toy'd with

They are used then casually thrown away

As if they were never meant to stay

I ask you,

Have you ever done such a thing?

Used such a word

Then did away with it with a fling?

Always or Never?

What will it be?

But to be honest, 

What you say doesn't matter.

Because according to today's society,

They mean the same thing.

    "Have you ever done such a thing?
    Used such a word
    Then did away with it with a fling?
    Always or Never?"

    No,I avoid these 2 words(always,never). I believe in "Never say Never".....
    But why do you care about the Society?
    What about your small 'society'/community?
    You are ,We are Human pieces of Eternity...🌌🌍🌝
    Today I am nothing to You.
    Tomorrow we could meet and you could decide that I am everything to You.
    But basically I am simply a tiny creation and a small creator (I am satisfied with this deal! Aren't you?)
