Embracing Time’s Path: Love Beyond the Grey.

Now what will you do

when you're old and grey?

Then who will want you?

it may happen someday.

When they no longer smile,

for you're such a flirt.

Think about it a while,

the people you hurt.

Look at them some day,

and smile your special smile,

They just might walk away,

leave you alone a while.

You'll find you've lost your touch,

Gone your friends will be,

Then you won't have so much,

Then you'll finally see.

The lies you told before,

The loves you lost and found,

They won't be there anymore,

You won't find me around.

Then what will you do,

and then you must admit,

no one will want you

so is it worth it?
