O my foolish heart

O my foolish heart, do not be sad for not being here, for not reaching the heavens,
There are many paths waiting to be explored,
There are many more places you haven’t been.

Do not grow a beard and throw words of wisdom,
You need to be young, exploit your gifted freedom.
The journey never ends, neither does the joy and learning,
Keep moving on till you own your energy, and let your emotions push you further.

This isn’t the age to reflect deep, this is your time to fall and rise,
Make most of today when your wounds heal quicker than ever,

And keep moving ahead before the tide of times gulps you forever.
