_{^{Here we go again folks! I'm going through the entries, which are all fabulous! Here is one I really liked but couldn't be considered being an old poem. Enjoy!}}

Epitaph of a Songbird

I am young but old 
I watch youths fall in love and ...
my heart swells with joy-
and hurt
for I know I shall never feel such feelings again.
From under the depths I watched as the world pass before me-
My time had stopped.
My voice lost in my thoughts
I no longer sing-
Yet the wind carries my songs from a distant past
And I listened...
I listened to the voice of a Songbird

That is no more.
