Time Dims

time dims
as we grey and hairs thin
its never so full and bold
is in youth when we hold
dreams promises and desires

we are young and the world is ours
we can leap from the moon, land on mars
forever is never done
time is still when we are young
embracing life we reach ever higher

boom! before long
time is suddenly gone
we've settle down
and with comfort we surround
bodies and souls that grow tired

dreams and promises made
we retire to yesterday
new young arise
time is on their side
we let them rediscover fire
