don't worry love,
you're gonna shine one day.
maybe it won't be for long
and maybe it won't be that bright
but my love,
you're gonna shine one day.

Sweet to the tongue,
you taste of silver sugar,
dripping saturated love.

Beautiful to the eyes,
you look of starry sunlight,
glowing cruel ebony night.

Pleasant to the ears,
you sound of happy bells,
just a sound of sadness long.

Soft to the touch,
your skin glows ivory gold,
a careful cut diamond cold.

Aromas gentle to me,
you smell of roses and cloudy skies,
a child's play in rain.

Cascades of waterfalls
run down your flushing cheek,
it's sad to see to watch you die.

Like the rivers of the Amazon,
long and vast do your tears spread,
until all they can do is stop.

i am young, i won't lie
responsibility hasn't quite kicked in yet.
my eyes are still wide and naive
but at least they're a little more open than before.
i am young, i won't lie
but i grow up a little faster each second
as the world delves into chaos.
it's a strange thing to yearn for adulthood
when i don't want to lose my youth.
i am young, i won't lie
halfway to thirty
quarterway to sixty.
i am young.
but
i'm not quite sure
i want to inherit
the earth yet.
