Young Like You
I wanted an afternoon
An afternoon was all
A stroll through distraction
Some paintings on a wall
All I wanted was an ornament
To brighten up a room
Instead I bought a boquet
One for me, one for you
It's temporary
Yes it is
To hang in windows and dry
But what a beautiful, lingering way to go
What an excellent way to die
I set out on certainty to
Find myself a blend
Life's a dash,
A one line race
So let your fingers touch the end
Toss your hair and bend the straight
Don't color in lines and out-run fate
Learn that a race is only won when there's two
And learn that though there's anyone, there will always be you
So sure.
Make sense of the theories you'll never define
But I won't trust anyone
Unless that anyone's mine.
