My friends these days
I see you getting old
breaking bones
withering stones
No longer the spriteful youthful invincible bodies
no longer the carefree, willful attitude of spring
Summer has set full swing, on this wheel of life
slowly we are
Waiting for Fall.
Many having your young children now
Some you're still out there trying find your home
trying to find your space
Tired of being alone
But things burn down, bodies break down
And we still gotta keep going.
Youth is so different.
We always think there is an end goal.
Never knowing we've reached it.
But we've all worked so hard for so many years
The desire is no longer the same
But our muscles know nothing else
We will work and stress as we always have
Always still playing the game.
Despite these things, age, getting in the way.
And all we do recognize things that were important once
are laughable now
we had fun oh sure we did
but style is within
now is the time to let it out
dear friend
shopping and nails
you don't have a choice.
you once did
but now you're tired
and it's a-ok
to enjoy life
do the good work
and then enjoy life.
