AS A CHILD THE VIEW INTO THE FUTURE SEEMED FOREVER AND A DAY, BUT ALL SO SUDDENLY I AM THERE WITHIN THE SUNSET OF A GRAND ADVENTURE, AND SO PREMATURELY WANING~~~~~~~ ME INTO THE MISTS OF A YESTERYEARS OBCESSION THAT DIDN'T REALLY MATTER WITHIN THE SUMMATION OF IT ALL BEFORE THE FALL COMES AS SURELY AS A SUNRISE. THE LEAVES LEAVING~~~~~~ WITHOUT ONE OUNCE OF REGRET THE SWAYING TREES, AS I WATCH THEM FALL ALL AROUND ME, OTHERS THAT I HAVE KNOWN THAT WERE LOST UPON A PLANET OF MANY PLACES IN FAMILIAR FACES, LEAVING ONLY LONELY TRACES~~~~~~~~~~FOR THE SURVIVOR TO CONTEMPLATE IN KNOWING WHAT THE FUTURE BRINGS TO ALL THINGS. AS A CHILD I THOUGHT AS A CHILD, AND AS A MAN THE CHILD STILL IN THE MAN LONGS FOR FOREVER.
