Everything Goes Away Poem by Peter S. Quinn

However long I stay
Distances are so close
In the morning of day
Everything still goes
Whatever I shall say
Times are still changing
In its going on play
Everything it’s arranging

Everything goes away
Like footsteps in snow
Remoteness in their ray
Morning with its glow
Words that are spoken
Dreams that are still free
Love that’s heartbroken
Everything from you and me

Everything goes away
Like footsteps in snow
Remoteness in their ray
Morning with its glow
Love songs in the distance
Feelings still so close
Meanings in their existence
All their aficionados

Everything goes away
Like waves of the sea
Mornings become a day
Love becomes again free
However long it’ll stay
I shall always love you
Every word you did say
Still is with me to renew
