To Be Young, Again
Age it is said is never old
never grow up, to never grow cold
everything eventually dries up and turns to dust
it is said it is a must
life starts gradually slowing
till the heart stops eventually beating
I wonder if this must be the truth
why can't I hang onto my youth
why is it a fleeting thing
always it is parting
I would love to believe I will never grow old
is that too straightforward, is that too bold
one day I know it will be my turn
just pack me away in a shiny urn
put me on a fireplace mantel
oh the stories about me everyone will tell
will they really know of my personal hell
these are the remains of me
of someone who once be.
