The Old Folks : Life

written by Poet : EC


Suddenly the world turns so very small
what happened to all the excitement?
Each morning a wonder, the future a fairy tale
now time itself has turned drab
grey in grey, the motto of the clock

only food makes the tired heart dance
it tangoes to a steak, but the teeth give in
so does the stomach
still, the love is there, even for love itself
very old, once again turning a child
the world is shrinking into a box
