"Well Passed Middle Age"

 

"Well Passed Middle Age"

Greg Budig 2021

Steps taken 

without ever 

moving forward. 

Time is

suspended in the 

journey you're on. 

Your feet 

no longer take 

you on adventures. 

Further behind 

 you are all the 

years that have passed. 

A stranger 

takes over what 

used to be familiar. 

Confused 

by everything you 

suddenly have become. 

A new chapter is

written before the 

old one is finished.

There are not 

as many pages as 

thought there would be. 

Counting on 

one hand what 

used to be forever. 

Don't think 

about the journey,

you're about to arrive. 

Counting the 

scratches on life's 

well worn wall.

Feeling secure about 

growing older, not too 

sure about growing old. 

The End
