Impermanence

Impermanent, are friends
They come and go
Some stay longer than others
No one but your shadow,
Stays, from start to finish 

Impermanent, is love
Falling in and out of love
Arduous yet beautiful, 
Is the journey of love
Total trust is the basis of love 

Impermanent, are emotions
Anger, delight, annoyance, 
Envy, pleasure, satisfaction, pain,
How long do they last?
Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? Years

So what is 'permanent'?
You! (But who are you?)
