Forever Young

The beauty of youth..
We danced in the shimmering moonlight..
Our eyes met..
In a trance of passion..
The flames of attraction burning so fiercly..
A romantic interlude
Our..
Skin softer than rose petals..

Forever young..

The beauty of youth..
We admire our outer beauty...
An innocence
A gentleness 
Soft lovely features..
External deliciousness
A vision of beautiful
Joyful eyes beaming..
To cherish the moments..

The beauty of youth..
Still searching for the fountain of youth
May it be we shall never find it?
Physical layers of skin change..
Gravity overides us all with time..
Fine lines appearing..
Followed by wrinkles..

Upon every fine line..
Upon every wrinkle
There is experience of life..
A representation of every fine line..
And..
Every wrinkle..
There is wisdom..

The beauty of youth..
The fountain of youth..
All lives inside us.
The external surface changes..
As do seasons change

Internal beauty remains the same..
Experience of life
With it triumps and tragedies..
Large doses of wisdom acquired with age..

Perhaps the fountain of youth always existed..
Throughout life..
We carry all of experience
Internally..
Bright as the early morning sunrise
Captivating as when the sun sets..
Ingredients to a recipe
Is the foundation of all..
Of which it shall become
Our beauty never dies..
Visions of beauty lies within
Inner beauty is the fountain of youth..
