*Nothing Gold Can Stay* (1)

By *****Junior Walker***** •

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. I’d love to be innocent again Like back when I was ten But instead you’ll find me Lost in the whirlwind Of modern living Where I definitely have sinned After puberty Something must have got in us We gradually faded from gold As we became sinners But maybe if we tried to change... Who am I kidding Me without drama would be way too strange I'm not changing a thing So as dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. This poem was inspired by Robert Frost, If you’ve ever watched the film “Outsiders” then you’ll know why I wrote it. I don’t care how thuggish you are that ending will bring a tear to your eye. The poems about how you start off innocent as a child then change for the worse
