get out while you're young

get out while you're young
the old
man says to me
when I tell him my troubles.
don't look back.
love will come again.
cut your losses.
you did all that you could
to make things
work.
there's nothing to be ashamed
of,
it's not failure.
it's life.
they can't all be winners.
you had some fun.
the worst thing you can do
in life is to stay with
someone who doesn't love
you, or who you don't love.
the world is full of such
insanity.
life is too short.
too brief. too valuable to live
in sorrow, sadness and grief.
look at your watch, it's ticking.
look at the sun.
how many more sunrises do you
have mister.
find joy. find joy. find joy.
get out while you're young.
and don't look back.
