What Direction Are We Heading
We are in Trouble
Planning for the future
Dreaming of what might be
How will we change in the next 10, 15, 25 years
It is so scary
Most people want to give it little thoiught
How will our bodies change ?
When we were young
We couldn't wait to get older
Only good things in our sights
Getting taller, smarter, stronger
Even richer we could only hope
Where in life do we all start to decline
A little weight gain
Our body not as limber as it use to be
Our eyes not as sharp and keen
Pulling out our glasses because we can't see
Forgetting to do something
Even though it was on our mind a second ago
Feeling more tired from work than usual
Slightly agitated and annoyed by ignorant and selfish people
Before I would count my blessings I'm not like them
Turn away and dismiss it from my mind completely
Upset when coworkers don't care about their job
You know your getting old when you turn on the radio to listen to music
People ask why ?
When people look at you funny when you pull out a camera
Your body aches for no apparent reason
Just because it feels like it
Going to the bathroom more often
Where before you gave it no thought
Words that we use to speak often
Are on the tip of our tongue
They stay their until someone pry's them off
Names of people and events we remembered are a bit foggy
I expected alot in my future but not this
It is what it is
Unless we find a way to make it better
