FADING AWAY
Fading away,
Just like the winds that blow towards the east side
Just like 4pm that always comes to an end in a day
4pm is a bit better though, it has a hope of coming the next day.
Fading away,
The perfect beauty
The charming eyes
The glaring teeth
Wrinkles have overtaken the once glowing skin
Eyes no longer sharp and charming like they were
Eyes are now pale and white.
Agility is gone
Weakened bones and muscles have taken over
Regrets filled the heart
Remembering the days of the youths, tears flow from the eyes
They flow freely down to the cheek
Regrets of past actions set in
Actions that can't be corrected.
Fruitful youth one had
A promising future
But the beauty of the youthful age got one eluded from the right path
Now the days of the youth are gone
One now fears his shadows
Pains of life have set in.
PIXABAY
Helpless like a baby
Can only be spoonfed
Regretful memories of youthfulness keep coming in
Wishes of going back into the past
Changing the past to what's right fills one's thought
But it was only wishes
A case of if wishes were horses beggars could have ridden.
Fading away,
Just like the year 0001
That most people have long forgotten
That no one has a memory of
Trying to take water from the cup
The cup slipped from one's hands and was broken
Broken without remedy
Shattered into pieces
Shattered as one is now shattered
Helplessness, Regrets
Has taken over one
One can only cry about the past
But can't do a thing about it
Fading away
The youthful age is an age of power, strength and agility. I will say anyone below 40 is a youth that's why the popular saying goes "a fool at 40 is a fool forever" We shouldn't wait till 40, we should start being wise in our youthful age. Do everything you got to do in your youths. Don't let the pleasure of youthfulness overtake you. You can have pleasure at times but let not the pleasure overtake you.
MAKE YOUR YOUTHFUL AGE WORTH IT
What a great poem! The popular says that nothing lasts forever means that some things that we count as pleasure easily FADE AWAY. Obviously, part of these things is beauty as your poem says. Old time is approaching every young. Your poem is great for sure.
Thought provoking though, this poem reminds me of my grandmother she use to be a vibrant and agile woman during her youthful age. The last time she came visiting I noticed she couldn't stand for a minute her eyes are getting dim and weak, then I realized that life is just a stage you will never be in one stage for ever. "time fades away just like the wind that blow towards the east side", nice poem dear this really got me thinking deeply.

When one utilizes the youthful age then there is always good memories to hold on to in old age. Old age is supposed to be a blessing that everyone longs for but just like your peom implies, when we waste our youthful age then the only things that go through our mind in old age becomes regrets of what and how we could have done things better. As a youth it is never too late to move to the right track and utilize our youthfulness well.
Nice one friend, keep steeming
