Sunset of Eternal Youth
So sublime
These oceans come alive
As the sun leaves its lips on me
As the tides caress my feet
Couldn't ask for anything better now
Then to be here
To breathe in
This everlasting piece of paradise
To feel peace
And release this
Imperfect confession
That it's not the same
Yet I still question
Who's to blame, as we reframe
Photo stills from a better day
Simpler times, if only we run away
And drive off into the sunset of eternal youth
