The Absolute

Days will pass, nights will go
Years will pass, years shall show
Love will fade, friends will vanish
Doubt will creep, trust shall tarnish
Eternity and I are friends, I know
Beyond this prison there is nowhere to go
Generalizations are easy and too cheap
Petty wisdom that I don't keep
Convenience and profit is what world knows
The one with courage and strength grows
On the branch of relativity I perch
As for the absolute I vainly search.
