Description
I used to write poetryAnd I think I used to be pretty good
But I've gotten away from it lately
I haven't been doing many things I know I should
I used to be so inspired
The words were whispered in my heart
They'd come flying out before I was ready
Straight to the page, faster than darts
Boom, there's a stanza
Zoom, there's a page
But lately my rhythm has stagnated
Lately I'm feeling my age
twenty is coming soon
With no end in sight
I can war with my inner demons
but aging, I cannot fight
It does not sound so old
To those who have survived it
and now I find myself here
Facing down a life I've so often wished to quit
I used to dream of the future
And now I dream of the past
I am not old yet, but I don't feel young
I fear my youth will not last
Wrinkles do not make me scared
I do not fear gray hair
But the future, it's on its way
To stop it, what can I say?
