Youth
Youth… What wonderful years! filled with joy
There were no tears.
Youth why won’t you stay with me for all my years?
Fun and wonderful times that faded away.
Pain makes me wonder why won’t you stay?
Then when the pain is stronger.
I take time to think and the pain starts to disappear for now I realize that you are here.
My youth and wonderful years will always be a part of me and from me they’ll never depart,
Because youth is not in my bones or skin youth is in My Heart.
