Forever Is A Long, Long Time

To a child, "forever" could mean a whole long year.
To a young adult, that "forever" could strike a note of fear
That adulthood will never arrive. Always rushing
To reach a place you have not reached but you keep wishing!

"Forever" is a relative measure of life and time,
Meaning different measurements of time as you leave each segment behind.
The only "forever" we will ever fully realize
Is our daily improvements as we advance toward what we visualize.
