A POEM ABOUT GETTING OLDERA AND FACING LIFE
AN HOUR PAST
LINES GROW DEEPER
STILL STARING AT SHATTERED GLASS

QUIETLY WAITING FOR THE REAPER
EYES CLOSE SLOWLY
LINES GROW DEEPER

ALL THINGS FORGOTTEN,REMEMBERED NOW HOLY
FULL OF PAIN AND REGRET
EYES CLOSE SLOWLY

ALL THNGS LIMBER NOW ARE SET
PEACE OF MIND BUT A DREAM
FULL OF PAIN AND REGRET

THE MIND RELEASES A SILENT SCREAM
YOUTH A WISH DENIED
PEACE OF MIND BUT A DREAM

PALM INVARIABLY LINED
YOUTH A WISH DENIED
AN HOUR PAST
STILL STARING AT SHATTERED GLASS
