Growing Older

As the leaves turn brown,
Bringing seasons that drown
The sun says hi,
And the moon says goodbye
Life keeps going on,
Time rushes by in a flash
The stars gleam with the same beauty as they did years ago,
Everything is the same
But somethings flourished and some perished
And now the times have changed in an instant,
The memories seem distant
Growing older with a heart filled with memories
Has never felt the same.
My heart beats as the clock ticks,
Life just seemed like a bunch of bricks
All my fears have now come true,
Many dreams left still to pursue
Life remained unpredictable 
Yet still, the sound of birds remains melidious to my ears,
Their beautiful rhythm makes me tear up
The beautiful sunset elopes my soul,
I finally feel at peace
I guess growing old wasn't so bad after all.
