praise the gaining of wisdom or
do we wrap our heads around the
notion that our lives are about over
and we should be thankful for all
that we have done or accomplished?
we struggle with the inevitability
of it all... as if its immensity is more
than we could ever bear... and yet,
bearing it is exactly what we do;
we live in each other's shadows
fearing our own more than others,
hiding when both approach as if
keeping some sort of promise...
time ages life... or is it the other way
around... i sometimes wonder when
my days inside the closest seem to
dampen my spirits... and, the dreams
I had while being locked away prove
to be more than I can understand in
the short span of time I have to live;
we honeymoon on the banks of the
lost creek, fishing inside our minds
for forgotten memories that might
help us better accept our old age.
