The Fountain of Old Age

Hi how are you?
Is it really you?
You used to look magnificent 
but now you look so different!


I must confess
that I guess 
that all those late nights
and cat fights
made you find 
your own kind

On the Midnight Mountain
you found the fountain 
of old age
while I found the page
on youth on my bed.
