Lost Youth.

Free spirit. Sore throat. Lost youth.
i'll tell you I understand, and that my decisions make sense. I'll tell you I know what i'm doing and that I feel the pain. If my surroundings aren't enough.
can you open the curtain without letting in sunshine? Can you close the door and let something in? I can look at a word without reading or thinking. I can breathe without tasting. Can you shatter a glass without breaking the peices? I can run for too long and stay in one place. You can sing so loud no one can hear you. Can you kill but give life? Can you hear but not listen? Our secrets aren't secrets if no one can hear them.Can you speak while drowning or caught in a crowd? Can a heart stop beating if already broken?

Can an old man lose his youth?
