I'm under the weather
and over the hill
my skin feels like leather
did I take my pill?
and I always say better
when they ask how I feel
but I know it's forget her
cause they're not in the will
and my bones make more noises
than the creaks in this chair
and I kind of hear voices
when there's nobody there
and I know the day's nearing
when I won't be around
and I'm tired of fearing
being stuck in the ground
there's a picture of family
there still up on the wall
I'll be joining them finally
guess I won after all

Hi. This one came about on
a dare from someone on a
social site called sodahead
to write a poem off the top
of your head. I think it was
done in about 20 minutes or
so. not very good I guess but
worth keeping I thought
