Seema Chowdhury - Nothing Is Forever

Things will come and they will go
You'll find friends and some foe
Then why do you feel down or low
As nothing can stay forever you know

So when you find good things in life
Don't think it will alwsy survive
Because nothing can always stay alive
As this is the rule of world's drive

So pick friends you think are for you
Trust and help them and be true
Because may be in a day or two
They have to leave without wanting to

Then don't feel it was unfair
To be given and then taken from there
Because this is the rule my dear
That you don't like but you have to bear

So look at the rose that blooms today
Brings beauty and promises to stay
But when time comes it can't say nay
It's over and it has to go away

Similarly joys and pain in your way
Will come to bring joy and grey
But don't let it take your trust away
Remember nothing can forever stay.
