Analysis of MY EXPRESSION



I cannot believe…
How long it’s been..
Since I’ve seen you…
My friend……

The world has been..
So colorized…

Not even completely aware or understanding….
What was waiting for us in the future…….

Turing from a boy into a man…
As the world changed right before my eyes…
The monstrosity of a beast…
As I changed from a man to an old man…
As the old saying goes…
With age comes wisdom…………………
With wisdom comes knowledge
But this is….
