Flaming Dart

The seconds turn to hours, and the days turn to years Oh what must I do to stop the aging. I need to grow, and let go of my fears I see the clock's pendulum swing, as time has begun fading. They say with time comes wisdom, but I say its untrue for the more I progress I feel to fall apart, I wish I knew everything then I'd know what to do I see death coming for me, like a flaming dart. I remember being told that I would live forever but those were the days when I was naive, eternal and a fulfilling life, that is my endeavor. plese tell me why, my dear youth, why must you leave? So as long as my heart beats, and my lungs breathe, This life I go on living, I sure do hope to succeed.
