Aging is a process that takes you by surprise,
one day you see a reflection you don't recognize
Wrinkles where once smooth skin used to be,
fine lines around your eyes you missed completely
No amounts of lotion will make it go away
When did your body betray you, no
permission gave
Eyes once so vibrant have now begun to fade,
in them a faint glimmer of your glory days
No wonder they say. you're only as young as you
feel,
You still feel young inside, this is so surreal
Then the aches & pains start to catch up to you,
is when you realize the damage the years can
do
So caught up in life before you get the
chance
to be able to know you're a victim of
circumstance
So, breathe in deeply, give into your
fate
and promise to enjoy living before it's too late
