Im only 18.
Sometimes I think about how many years I have ahead

About the lovers that will come and break my heart
And the lovers who's hearts I will break

For the kids I hope to raise
And the kids of my kids that I hope to raise

For the jobs I will have
And the opportunities I will lose

For the people I will meet, and stay
And for the people who will abandon me

For the times I will sit on the peak of the world, like a king
And the times when the lights dim and I will be totally engulfed by the dark

And I realize
The vastness, and depth of the ocean in front of me

And just how lucky I am -
How delicate and fading youth is.
