Time Is Catching Up

Find that time is catching up

With this old body of mine.

Can't seem to weather the storms,

As once I was able too.

 

Yet pity me not, for I am young

And thoughts still come to me.

The mind remains strong

And lets me know what's bothering me.

 

Oft times I'd rather forget

Why this or that is aching me.

Still I know I've been blessed,

In having lived this long.

Love ya!

Visions of A Skylark Dressed in Black by Aberjhani
