Audacious Youth Poem by Muhammad Sakib

Audacious Youth

Rating: 5.0


We're not young anymore
What are you so scared of?
I'm yours to lose
What if I told you, that things will never improve
As for now I reserve judgments
Until these chains, chains are redundant
See, all of your demons became my demons
But we're oceans away, our glory days,
Went up, went up in flames

I feel a little lost in this world
I need a little room to breathe
I've been through and seen a lot
Get away, get away, get away from me
I'm moving on, moving on to better things

It was a cold night, the talk of forever kept us warm
But even forever, doesn't last for long
If you were in my shoes
You would know, you would know how it felt

"I'm just a boy, " he said
"I'm just a girl, " she said
"We're in love, " they said
What happens next, who cares?

And at the start, I was wishing I could be anything you'd want
"It won't always be summer
It might be Autumn too
Winter might come join in
But I'll be next to you"

You took me apart to see inside
You took me away to feel the life
I have no regrets
I get so lost, yeah I feel so lost in my own skin
Are we gonna live forever?
No.

There's nothing left, so why should we care?

last line is nicely crafted as Audacious Youth's voice- There's nothing left, so why should we care?

thanks Mahtab Bangalee, I guess there's this part inside all of us that wants to be set free
