Come my son
Hear my words
Heed my advice
Else she stays and seduces
Time that is…
In my mind, in the deep corners of my soul, I am still that young teenage girl with huge dreams, with the world at her feet. Ten years after, I am not anymore, and I wonder, “where did she go?” Time seduced her: she lured me with stories of the future, she gave me strength, vigor and energy. Years down, she’s still with me, but now I am matured. I smile at the things I did in the past, I cringe at some, and I sigh in the lessons learned.
There’s something mysterious about youthfulness. It embodies that feeling that you are special, strong and smart. Yes, perhaps you are all that, and then some. While you enjoy it all, remember that “Time waits for no one”. Do not put off things that can help your future, plans that can shape you to be better. Time will tell you lies, as you say ”I still have time” . Yes you do, but with each year, the strength she gives dwindles.
Come my daughter
Listen to my words
Lend me your ears
She stays and seduces
You don’t have her
She has you
