When I Get Older

When I get older, I’ll fantasize about life:

By imagining I had pretty children and a beautiful wife.

When I get older, I’ll feel as if I passed a stage

I will have neither gray hair nor will my skin age.

When I get older, I will look back on time;

I’ll wish I had dated more often and had more duties denied.

When I get older, I hope I will have true friends.

They won’t care about money or if I wear fancy brands.

When I get older, I guess I will feel more pain.

Learning that it is a process, and it results in the gain.

When I get older I think I might have some more love;

Love to my friends and family, even to a simple dove.

Although to this question, I just have a clue:

Maybe when I get older I'll answer it to you.
