Life For the Aged
Life for the Aged
Old age comes with an eighteen wheeler’s load of hurt.
Old age comes with the rest of life, permeated with pain.
Old age comes with loads of memories, experiences missed.
Old age comes with loads of memories, experiences to relish.
Old age becomes moments for reminiscing, looking back into the past.
Old age becomes the catalyst that brings one to memories that once were.
Old age becomes the walls that block one from experiences, no longer able to be.
Old age becomes the barrier that prevents many from living the life they once did.
Old age becomes the obstacle to journeys, to adventures once prolifically brought light.
Old age becomes the impediment that has brought life to these very unfulfilling moments.
