Bliss and Misery,
It's a cycle of Bliss and Misery
Been the same through all of history
A failure and then a victory
We are all fighting through wars
We lose some battles, we get deep scars
But don't you ever give up on yours
We win some battles, we shine like stars
Waves reach their crest, they reach their trough
Things heat up and then they cool off
Yes, every high will ultimately pass
But a thing isn't beautiful because it lasts
So just hold on tight
And don't forget to put on a fight
Because the future is a mystery
In this cycle of Bliss and Misery

Yes, this is the poem that inspired the title of this book! The quote "A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts" was actually said by Vision, a character from the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). He said it in reference to humanity, and it has always stuck to me ever since I heard it. I am scared of death, and for some reason this quote comforts me a lot in that matter. And it makes so much sense! If flowers never wilted, if the sun never set, if we always happy, then those things wouldn't be special and beautiful at all! I know it seems obvious, but it really makes me feel better about all the good things that end.
P.S. Please vote and comment!
