What do you think this poem is about?

Answers about me....

May be I am so young,
May be I speak unusual,
But do you ever think,
How much old am I?
This is twenty three year,
I am now at such a stage,
Where I can touch this life,
I can take this life as my own,
Either I can enjoy this moments,
Or I can feel this bitter life,
If I enjoy this life as all young,
May be I can't reach to the destination,
The destination I've dreamt,
All my childhood and teenage,
I have seen the struggle around me,
Rise and fall of a man in the society,
I have seen the hates of man to life,
A lot of things, good or bad,
I want to draw them in the poems,
I am trying to depict the life in my words,
May be these are boring or abnormal,
But these are the facts of reality,
How can I forget them,
May be you can say, I have times in future,
But I don't trust my future,
It is the most betrayal friend of a man,
There is no assurance of life,
I am the mortal man who desires to be immortal,
In the hearts of man I want to live forever.
For these I am such a young,
Speaking in the voice of a tired old.
only for these.....

    Age, experience and life! To grow old is to gather years and years together. We create a world with our life. For poets, this is good. We have more material to use to write works of art. Experiences create thoughts and feelings, giving us great emotions. All of which can together be put on paper to last more lifetimes in history. Immortalizing what we have come to know and what we have seen and felt. Good poem! DC
