Yea...I was young once

By mysticventures


I was young once

before obligations
and commitments

I was young once

before bills
and debt

I was young once

before condoms
and aids

I was young once

before worry
and regret

I was young once

before diet
and exercise

I was young once

before the aches
and pains

I was young once

before dreams crashed
and burned

I was young once

before hairloss
and viagra

Yea...I was young once
