Forever

I dance where no man has traveled,
The land where no dream unravels.

I sit on a fountain of youth,
yet age faster then the fountain can produce.

I sing within a castle so vast,
yet never see the the beauty within.

I feel the waves crash from the sea,
yet never have seen the ocean.

I smell the earth and all its beauties,
yet I was never born.
