youth

everyone has a different youth

some assumed more
some enjoyed more
not mutually exclusive, but more more and more

experiences that brings you round, round and round - nonetheless
perspectives added on, replaced or renewed.
right or wrong, judgement may not be of your call.

you gain some, you lose some
responsibilities you begin to hold
without a care at times you do follow

leave some space in the basket you're holding
for the yield of life's orchard is never ending.

there may be no cessation of youth
but when time flows, return it does not.
cherish the sweetness while it remains
also the anguish that takes you away

it all culminates in reminiscence and appreciation.
