Young Shall Grow

For to the things done in time past
birth the present, leads me
by hands to there where self discovery lies
i have known time and its values
for i have passed through the hurdles of time
i have pass through the hurdles of life
i have known pains
i have known pleasures
i have known sorrows
i have known madness and folly
in the arms of philosophical gatherings
in the path of wisdom
where but few travelled by
with time and daily doings 
i have come to know me and to accept whom i've 
become
for wether i failed or i succeeded
i cannot change them 
for they have made me who i am
like the breaking of the day
so i grow up with time and and daily learnings.
for to the boy of then in the past
with time and daily doings
has become the father of the  present man.
