[創作] An Elegy of Youth

[EddyGuitar (TESOLguitarist)]

My youth,
Gone with the pulse of time,
Swooped down the era
While emptiness filled the air.

Your youth,
The naive lilac,
Bloomed only in the spring
Of the very present yet,
When I folded my eyes,
Repeating in my mind
The grandeur vista again
And again,
There remained nothing - what a cruel nothing,
But the winter shrouded with
Your withered, chapped leaves when
I tried to portrait
Your lovely image.

Their youth,
Like this torn, old guitar,
Harped on the best tale
Ever penned - a trilogy depicting
The course of life.

Our youth,
The most splendid apparels which
We were once trapped with,
Would yet be doomed to be
Death's best collection.

The more we advance,
The more youth retreats.
