"AGELESS"

Forever young

The heart stays forever young
It bounds over the fields of it's youth
Where time held no boundaries
And the cares of life were nonexistent

*~~*

Where each day was an adventure
Out into a bright world of promise.
We could spin our hopes and dreams
And believe they would come true.

*~~*

The harsh realities of adulthood come
And pain and disappointments befall us.
With time it fades into the recesses of our forgetfulness
Where we don't have to return.

*~~*

We hold our precious memories close inside our heart
And let our dreams gallop onward
Through meadows and brooks;
Soaring high above our pain.

*~~*

A fountain of youth springs forth
Washing over the scars in our heart and soul....
A balm never letting the heart grow old.
