Feeling Young

Oh yes, there are days
when I ask, "What have I done?"
and the answer is so little,
but I'm still feeling young.
Oh yes, there are days
when I ask, "What are we doing?"
Like a midlife crisis,
except I'm feeling young.

I'm feeling like I've done enough for my age.
I'm feeling like I'm on the right track for this stage.
I'm feeling strengthened, though I stumble and fall.
Even youths do that, after all. 

Oh yes, there are years
I ask "What was that for?"
And I know that someday
I won't feel young anymore.
But I'm not discouraged.
When it's all said and done,
I've got a long ways to go 
and I'm still feeling young.
