Youth is gone,
that young happy boy,
with his blue eyes gleaming,
and his smile beaming.
Innocents is shattered,
that soft cool breeze,
that peaceful wind
that calming draft
Pain is here,
that evil beast
with its crimson eyes
and its keen claws
Knowledge has arrived,
its labyrinthine mind
and its lust for learning
its greed for more
Age has barged in
its bright green eyes
with its crippling fist
and its deceiving smile
I have grown up
my playing days are over
will i have no fun
what oh what will i do?
