Young World

It's such a blessing how the 
young world it's still 
progressing 
The quality of life it's based on 
imagination
A vigor of emotions which has 
us stuck in amazement 

Youth. A state of mind with will 
of pure termination

Nobody grows old by living a 
number of years 
People grow old by executing 
certain ideals 

Wether you are thirteen or 
eighty three
There is in every beings heart 
the simple joy of wonder.
The childlike appetite of whats 
left to come next 

You are as old as your doubt,
As young as your interest,
As old as fear, 
Its all just a game of existence.

The undaunted challenges we 
prevail are all wired with the 
innermost core of how we feel.
Perhaps may be that life is 
wrought with fever and fraught 
with danger,

Our spirits unembodied by evils 
we've grown.
From man to the beauty of 
women and the power of earth, 
infinite courage
So long you are young.
