Description

When I am old

When I am old the lines will show,

the words perhaps no longer flow. 

The eyes will set and surely droop

while underneath the bones will stoop.

Across the brow may stretch a crease,

a surface etched before deceased.

When I am old the days I rue

have slipped away and didn’t accrue.

The fire records and cannot lie,

the marks shine through and never die.

When I am old there’ll be no song, 

times replaying the memory long.

When I am old I’ll stop all this verse

cause I shall know it’s worse and worse
