I used
To be like that,

Someone that said,
****** if I don't
****** if I do,

I'm ****** all the way.

Then,

As I got closer
To an age
That had nothing to do with me
But
Biology and genetics,

I got conservative.

I forgot my initial youth

And I miss them
Everyday,
Only seeing them in flourishes
Of revelry

Where time, as it should be,
Is a non-issue and

Life

Takes precedent.
