Analysis of Eternity



The sun kisses my cheeks
The sand tickles my feet
I smell the sea in the air
Close my eyes without a worry or care.

Because just like the tides we are timeless
Just like the sea we'll be endless
Just like the sun there's a fire
In our hearts that will never tire.

Like infinite blue skies cover the sea
Forever and ever, for all eternity
Within, above, and around
There's complete serenity.
