Still young

George Chow 1976 (台灣)

May 22 
Ode
As i resume my dreams past and further.
Wanting of the wisdom of past life.
Ahead of knowing prediction.
Its all within in the likely school.
To be judged..
if i ever forget the saddness.
His light of my shadow cling.
How to tell my sarcastic mood.
The only sentiment now..
Across the chalks of teacher's board.
Hoping to pass that greedy truth.
