This used to bother me a lot, but not anymore. I find it comforting, in a way, that the oldest recorded story is about this very thing:

"How long does a building stand before it falls? How long does a contract last? How long will brothers share the inheritance before they quarrel? How long does hatred, for that matter, last? Time after time the river has risen and flooded. The insect leaves the cocoon to live but a minute. How long is the eye able to look at the sun? From the very beginning nothing at all has lasted."

"Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to? You will never find that life for which you are looking. When the gods created man they allotted to him death, but life they retained in their own keeping. As for you, Gilgamesh, fill your belly with good things; day and night, night and day, dance and be merry, feast and rejoice. Let your clothes be fresh, bathe yourself in water, cherish the little child that holds your hand, and make your wife happy in your embrace; for this too is the lot of man."

does it scare you and make you sad that everything that starts will eventually end cause nothing last forever?

From Gilgamesh and Enkidu to Achilles and Patroclus and then David and Jonathan the most prevalent thing in human history we have been warned about are homoerotic codependent friendships and yet you keep talking to the guy you met at 19

3: Gilgamesh and Enkidu

[It means] a strong partner shall come to you, one who can save the life of a friend. He will be the most powerful in strength of arms in the land. His strength will be as great as that of a sky-bolt of Anu. You will love him as a wife, you will dote upon him. [And he will always] keep you safe.

The Epic of Gilgamesh, standard version, tablet I, translated by Stephanie Dalley.
