One Thing Forever Remains

Nothing lasts forever baby,
momma once said
not even love
look around you,
love is either long gone, forgotten, or dead.

Left behind is only space
filled with memories of tears,
laughs,
and rage.

Hold on to that space,
for that space is
the one thing
that forever remains.

Momma in that space
when the heat is gone,
coldness remains.
When the light is gone
darkness remains.
And in the darkness momma,
one thing remains:

It will pick me up
when I am feeling down
It will light the way
when I lose my path
It will warm me up
in my darkest hour
Love is the one thing
that forever remains.

Love is air
Love is water
Love is spirit,
mother earth, and fire

Let beauty be below me,
Let beauty be above me,
Let beauty be behind me,
Let beauty be before me,
Let beauty take me higher and higher
Ooh, higher! To spirit, mother earth, and fire
