I've aged well beyond my years
the youthfulness fading from my face
everyday is a chore to get out of bed
my muscles ache, burn as though on fire
each joint, every fiber of my being, hurts
I feel so decrepid, so ancient
I arise, time to take my meds
thus a few hours later
medicine taking effect
I get drowsy
climbing into my soft piece of heaven
I drift away to dreamland
though I'm 36, I feel 99
stress has taken its toll
every day my body becomes more weary
they say you "get better with age"
but i beg to differ on that
I have paid my dues in life
learned alot from my mistakes
and been through more then the average person
I'd say its taken a toll on me
I can only hope to grow old
with pride and dignity
even if I have to do it
with aches and pains
along the way
I want readers to give me honest feedback and any suggestions you may have.

I wasnt really going for poetry here. Just somewhat expressing my thoughts at the current time I guess. So sorry if u or others took it the wrong way...that was not my intentions. I do so apologize.

Don't hate me...
To be honest...I really just don't see the 'poetry' in this.
