Forever Young
As I cling on to hope
With all my being.
Refusing to believe
this inevitable inconvenience.
For what gain does it serve me
To recognise this pain
Becoming weak
While it’s solace I earnestly seek
I know another way!
I declare
What is this way?
you say
I will not look with mine eyes.
Or speak with this tongue.
As I determine
to stay forever young.
