My Glass Shall not Persuade Me I Am Old
The Works of Age and Time
“My Glass shall not persuade me I am old”
Standing right before the glass
An image of a fresh young lady
The one my eyes see
The glass adores me with wrinkles
My hands stretch them away
Bringing forth the smooth young face
My glass shall not persuade me I am old
For thou remain ever young
Dresses of the young days still dress of today
The attractive smile on my rosy lips
Still calling the young, a kiss to seek
Kisses of my lips still comforting as the past,
He will always say to me
Young I see, old my glass shall tell.

Anything to get ready for one hell of a show where the talk maybe cheap but the words cut deep...
