No city can
ever be new,
as long as
it's populated by
either animals or
persons.
Keep a city old,
with all the
artifacts and relics
of their beliefs,
love a person
so tenderly,
everyone and
everything is old.
As soon as
you get
something new,
no matter how
beautiful and priceless,
treasured and valued,
expensive or cheap
or meet someone,
even a new
born baby,
they all become
as old as
you touch it,
whatever your eyes
see is old.
The heart and
eyes of man
continues to seek
out new things
and people and
places to conquer.
Never satisfied with
its possessions.
Ever seeking and
ever wanting.
There's nothing ever
that is not old,
nothing at all.
But given is
every new day,
that has dawn
and emerged from
the dark to
be your morning.
