Now Until Never (edit)

Watch the sun rise one more time
It'll just go right back down again
The moon, again, floats on by
Changing tides and lighting
skies

There's this hallowed path we take
This whisper in the vines
Don't stumble there my little friend
You haven't much more time
No sleep, no rest, no stopping now
The future looks so bright
As we gaze ahead again
Unto the morning light

Less dark left, the light comes soon
Born again to light the room
Along it brings a brand new day
Again one more has ticked away

Three-thousand and, six-hundred ticks
I pray to God that this one sticks
Cause heaven knows I've felt the itch
This Winter sang a dreadful pitch
And God forbid she digs her ditch

Oh Lord, how deep she dug

The weather here is getting cold
I feel it in my bones
And with the cold a chapter's ended
The storm before the calm
A baby takes his infant steps
A drunk man tells a lie
Eventually we'll all be dust
So there's no use to cry

Soak it up, you'll need the juice
To make your fears subside
Break the sorrow, cut it loose
Be ready for what hides
Hold it in and blow it out
Shelter from the cold
Every time you speak your peace
You say it's getting old

So...... I will say it's over
We all know our role
From now until never
Leave nothing or no one out in the cold

We are definitely 'all in this together' and I suppose like a liferaft - an inflatable dinghy type - those outside are more of a danger to the craft than those in as they claw and pull to get in. The simple answer as you've eloquently mapped out here - help them in.
Nice one Cerebriation
Thank you for the RR.

Thank you for reading! The are several more new-ish pieces on the list, I think. Be my guest, lol. You're practically my only reviewer.
