Old eyes

Old eyes looking up from a carpeted floor
cataracts cloud
making life blurry
time slowing down
as muscles grow weak
bones creak
as a whimper escapes her
she's happy to rest a bit
time has claimed her youth
age has covered her face
12 years of life
not nearly enough
she is missed
every day
her head in my lap
looking up
with old
eyes

Please tell me what you think
