Nothing stays... the most constant thing in life is its inconsistency... everything is transient ... Life is dynamic, ever changing...


Just a Moment in Time...

Even the most passionate of loves,
Passes away one day.
Even the deepest of anguish,
One day fades away.
Even the most chronic of wounds,
Heals up one day.
Even the most unshakable faith,
Can sometimes sway.
Even the strongest of the waves,
Is shattered on the bay.
Even the longest of the night,
Eventually ends in the day.
Every flower that blooms in beauty,
Has to wither away.

Time never stops a second,
It's always on its way...

Life is just a moment in Time,
It has to end one day...

Nothing in this world stays.
Maya holds its sway...

Can I rise above all this?
Not let myself betray...

A most enjoyable tread Zoya, It is true that time waits for no man or woman, and in my opinion, we must live in the now as much as we can, making the most of each precious moment we are given. In answer to your final question, I do believe you can and will.

Smiling at you,

Tai
