Nothing Ever Dies

The taking always the painful part,

The tugging and tearing pulls at the heart

Like a large bull elephant straining at chains

'Til he gains his freedom from torture and pain.

 

But 'Packy' has secrets unable to share,

He runs straight away without e'er looking back.

For as surely as one door closes in time,

Another one opens ahead and on track.

 

As the train races forward with uncanny ease,

Watchful and hopeful and eager to please,

The wind sweeping oceans of air beneath wings

'Til the uplifting current tickles and teases

 

The lifeblood to stir in another dimension.

Craving the fresh fettle of a new start.

Boundless emotions, too many to mention,

Falling like autumn leaves, filling the heart.

 

Waking in Neverland, fresh as the daisies

Free from the yolk of unburdensome lies.

New to a world and awake with unknowing,

Safe and assured

Nothing ever dies.
