Time-The Young Fellow

Life spent lavishly like Eli’s sons
Vision seen and neglected
Flying leaving no trace
Immortality should the work of hand
Searching for the hero inside
Looking up to you-self inspiration

This YOUNG FELLOW bliss about my eyes as pain
This SMART CHAP doomed
DICING TIME gladness cast a wail
While unblooms the best hope not SOWN?

Well to do with the RESOURCE
Life took a turn forever
How arrives it joy.

Of the clear oil lamp
Shining like the face of a god in a shrine
My fingers bleed as I perceive you
My hands close yours in one accord
As we jaunt
Then Babel of emotions runs through my mind
