- Nothing Lasts Forever -

FULL VIEW PLEASE

Nothing lasts forever...

Nothing but the pain I try to hide
I know will always stay
This pain I have inside
Will never go away...

I did this a couple months ago, the poem and the pic. I don't know which one I like better so I'm submitting two versions, the poem is still the same though. Let me know which one is best and I'll remove the other or send it to my scraps.

Now I know it's not really true, some things do last forever, more than just the pain. Well I hope anyway, because I am engaged to a wonderful man. But sometimes I can't help but feel this way. This poem was written about the two closest people in the world to me(aside from my fiance). Mat (my bestfriend since I was 7 years old) and Sheila (my bestfriend since I was 14). It's mainly about Mat because we were friends for so much longer. Anyway, when we were 17, I dropped out of school and they started dating each other....I never heard from them for weeks. Then Mat got thrown out of his house and came to live with me and a few of my friends for a couple months...the three of us were hanging out again. But then we all got thrown out and I haven't really heard from either of them since....so I kinda felt used and abandoned...losing both of them at the same time was really hard on me...they pretty much were my life. They always said they loved me....but nothing meant anything....it was all a joke....
I also went through a lof of shit that year...lost everyone of my other friends at the same time as well. We were all fucked up on drugs and they were robbing each other all the time, there were some murders... just a lot of shit went on. These were all people who were really close to me, and seeing everything they were doing to each other was horrible. I have a really hard time trusting people, even more since then. How can I ever assume that anything will last forever?
