Where Am I Going

Where am I going
Have I gone too far?
Have I lost my mind?

Where are my eyes
Oh, have I seen to much?
Have I lost my touch?

Losing directions
From growing infections
Poisoned desires
Of reaping life so young

What will I be like
When my head is bare
And my legs are weak?

Will I be strong
Or barely keep alive
When I'm thirty-five?

Reaching dimensions
That shatter conventions
Leads me to fear
That I'm growing old too soon

With every step and every breath
It's farther from youth and closer to death
And the things I've realized
Now beckon me to shut my eyes

And I will grow to the age
Of maybe eighty years
In such little time
With this venturous mind

What am I singing?
Don't I know myself from experience?
I'll never change nor cease to sail the sky
Till the day I die

I'll come to conclusion with fear or illusion
I'll live how I feel
'Cause no matter how fast or how slow
Youth will go
