I Miss My Youth
Ode to Youth
There was a time when I was new,
Sprouts fresh and green, life just begun;
My skin plump as morning petals dew,
All things are beautiful when young!
An energy and strength ever true;
Discoveries, emotions so exciting!
Yes, it was so…
Not that long ago…
My future ahead inviting.
The early days, the world yet unknown;
Hopes and dreams like sunbeams shone.
Possibilities had no end,
Tension held like the arrow on a bow,
Those days before heartbreaks begin;
Cupid, quivering, not ready to let go.
Regrets hadn't yet brought me to my knees.
Yes, youth is the state, where love awaits,
before the winters freeze.
