Nothing will last

It won't last. 

None of it. 

Believe me when I say it. 

smiles, 

whines, 

every word that rhymes, 

nothing will last. 

wishes, 

dreams, 

love, 

life, 

those midnight cries, 

nothing will last. 

None of it. 

That pit in your stomach, 

something will fill it, 

if not love, 

then a meal. 

Even that pit won't last. 

There is " zawal " to everything. 

every worldly desire, 

need, 

dream, 

hope. 

Things will replace eachother, 

may be a year, 

or a day,

or just the next millisecond. 

Nothing you feel will last, 

not even " not feeling anymore ".

~Shafaq Shahid. 

who also won't last too.
