Sunset of My Youth
written by: casual_narratives
One last time gazing ⠀
at the evanescing beauty ⠀⠀⠀
A teardrop for innocence lost ⠀⠀ ⠀
Lamentations and Triumphs I dare not boast ⠀⠀
Spring, return! & will you give me the key?⠀⠀⠀
Ere that I bid farewell and say ⠀⠀ ⠀
You have been with me in my decaying inmost⠀
In my aloneness cheered me the most ⠀⠀⠀
When the days fill my soul with melancholy ⠀⠀
I am advancing, nearing life’s decline ⠀⠀ ⠀
Let me not be pining for the good old days ⠀⠀
Let me not be dragged by the daily grind⠀⠀ ⠀
You warmed my longings of yesterday⠀⠀ ⠀
Maybe we will be reunited again someday ⠀⠀⠀
Farewell Youth, My Sunshine!
