then they appeared
the wrinkles…the sunspots
years gone by in a jiffy
then they appeared
the wrinkles…the sunspots
years gone by in a jiffy
dreaming of youth
through cracked glasses
old age in a corner
night lamp
I see wrinkles
on my hands
old age
reminiscing about
the days of youth
when people start
respecting you without reason
you surely have become old
hazy reflection
on a cold wintry day
cleaning the mirror
with arthritic hands
no
the haze stayed
for her vintage eyes
saw all things blurred
midlife crisis
thoughtful nights
old age beckoning
grey hair peeping
from under the fashion colour
can’t hide old age
each grey hair
reminiscent of the passing years
the end i fear
start self love
at an early age
nurture yourself…
and your soul
for
we shall need all the love
in our agedness
