jeunesse dorée

Tout le monde
Loves a lover.
So they say.
Une jeune fille
Lost in love
Wearing rose-rose tinted glasses
And wandering 
Paris.

No longer young am I
And my fashion fits my form
Paris a dream of younger days
Golden days past
The jeunesse dorée and I
Carousing
In the 6th arrondissement
Or strolling along 
The banks of the Seine
In sympathy together.

And now I stare out the window
Trapped inside
This aging shell
Sans amour
Toute seule

And reminisce.
