GROWING OLD(ER)
~ By Debi Lyn
I feel so sad right now. For one, I've gotten as fat as a cow!
Maybe it was just this year I suddenly became old.
Old hit me with crying over Facebook videos in the middle of the night.
It is amazing
How one thing
Can trigger multiple
Memories
A scent
A place
A song
A person
An object
AAnd what happens
To those memories
When we get older
Black and white pictures of the past. Time was moving so fast. I learned how to cope.How to be happy in the little time i had left. I know i cant go back to when i was small.
A silver hair spins a thousand tales unspun.
It comes, drifts, sinks and leaves,
Blinded by what it thinks, hears and sees.
In a world where the two, seeks the one.
The stairs are me, the floor is me, the chair itself resembles me
The hinges are undoubtedly me.
I’m rusty, old,
creaking along, falling apart, painfully slow.
Each step echoes loud, every day asks for effort.
