We wish to redress the past
Make future joys that will last
Try so hard to hold fast
We are prisoners of time
Enjoyment skips away
Sorrow demands to stay
Life should always be play
Yet we are constrained
To be serene not mundane
Excited without noisy strain
Youth cannot be retained
We must age to find new
I am a prisoner of time
My heart, soul and mind
This is my rebellion defined
Savor each moment
The Rational Element
