A young man thinks in terms of the future. Man in his prime is busy with the present. Man walking his final mile thrives in his memories. M. Beatty
THE JOURNEY
The road ahead is open and paved
For the young man with only his future to see
There is no reason for time to be saved
He must hurry to find who he'll be
There are roadblocks and tolls and construction ahead
A working man in his prime lives in the now
He goes day to day just making his bed
Just worrying about why, when, and how
Time goes too quickly in the final mile
The old man dwells on the memories he made
He will be leaving his life in a very short while
No more options to buy, sell, or trade
