Old we may be in years

and though we have shed many tears,

young, we remain in the heart

throughout life love has played a big part,

in structuring just who we are,

in the way that we grow and how far

we have transcended since birth

to the place where we are, despite hurt.

The suffering of living is plain

but we all somehow get through this pain

and many stay true to their soul,

even though they have suffered the cold,

withstood the storms and the wars,

the future is as much ours as yours,

that is why you will see us smile

and dance and sing once in a while,

because though through years we have aged,

the heart, love and soul is the same,

ready to be crazy and weird,

and we know we are never to long here,

and we know this and shine out our light,

because young or old we will party all night

to the sound of the heavenly choir,

we live with a passion and experience desire

for that is what living is about

experiencing all that life offers out.
