The Word Forever

it looked like forever

when I started this journey

years and months and days ago

you said the word forever

to me

as we clinked our champagne glasses

chilled and filled, smiled and hoped

and as the years past

it took forever to find you

it seemed like forever to wait for you

it smelled like forever

as the place burned down

and took my dreams and wishes up to the sky

in a trail of smoke

higher and higher

that went on forever
