Voids

A void. Dark, cold and endless. Nothing and everything. A concept children can’t grasp We would never understand something like that We were young We were children A void. It exists while we make our youth last The memories we share along the way Learning and growing, with fun of course Why did we ask to grow up We had everything We were children A void. There, watching as you step into that highschool A different experience We are older now, more mature Right? We thought we were ready to be an adult We were children A void. It feeds off of your growth, waiting As you say i do, looking into their eyes You wonder where time went You weren’t a kid You were an adult That wished you were young A void. It's time to see it. Scary as it is, big, but small And as the day of your demise seeks the warmth from your short youth The void takes you And you feel full of youth again we wished we were children
