Here we sit in our old bodies
Our minds still full of yourthful enthusiasm
Pretending to be young enough
Energy devoid of us
Trying to muster
Only to fail
Mama once said I'd be old one day
And here we are
Keeping up the faith
Energy still devoid of us
It's not that easy
Trying to keep up
Who are we really?
In these vessels
That slow us down
Hoping to go
Where I once went
Here and there
Always out and about
Taking the bull by the horns
Indeed we do
Hanking after my youth
Another day of reflection
Very depressing
Energy still devoid og us.
And there is a poet in there too! Wow Nix...you are full of surprises! Love it!
