Some things we lose
but we find other things,
sometimes as good
sometimes even better.

It's different though, isn't it?
when you've lost something
and you look for it.

Youth is the only truth for the young
and it's no good
the old folks looking back for that,
and if they do
it won't be the same.

this is why we have a kitchen drawer
to put those things in which we don't want to lose
and then forget anyway.
