My Forsaken Word

WHEN I AM WISER AND OLDER
Dafina catens

Not a day or a month but after years i will older,
Older in age,
And wiser,
Wiser from experience and teachings,

Maybe by then you shall listen to me,
Dear beautiful daughter of nature let the world invade you,
You will remember me if i wont hit the old age,
If yes i will watch at you like a movie,

I will tell you on how to live the world,
And you shall see my wisdom speaking,
You will listen as you consider my age,
Because i regret having words and wisdom at this age,

I will just look at you and the whole of my thoughts will fill you,
You will yearn like saul yearning for Davids harp,
My words like the rhythm of the song,
To keep evils from your way,

Yes,
I will be old,
Old and wise,
Above all respected and all my words shall be written like the words of my ancestors!
