My Youth

My youth explodes.

Inside of me is a light undimmable, untamable, untouchable.

Outside me is a fight and, they have brought their best men.

They are trying to capture me, to confuse me and use me;

But, the light I beam out is unexplainable.

It erodes all the “disgusting” and shatters all nonsense.

Like a bomb, I explode with vigor.

I ignite the flames of youth even in the aged.

Come, I invite you to this splendid side.

Taste with me what real youth is like;

Evolving, reforming, totally jaw-dropping.

My youth bashes any contrary thoughts,

Those that are inconsistent with my being,

Those plans that want to bind my thoughts in chains.

I destroy any misunderstandings, oh yes, I do;

Those misinterpretations that leave me looking insane.

Inside of me is a light undimmable, untamable, untouchable.

Outside me is a fight and, they have brought their best men.

They are trying to capture me, to confuse me and use me;

But, the light I beam out is unexplainable, it erodes and shatters all nonsense.
