Still i sit here heart beating the same
when
days have passed so quickly it seems
yet skin wrinkles upon skin that used to belong
to me
A glass of turkey and a forgotten dream
stirring the lost of what could of been
head shouting with what i have ,youth lingers for the kill
of the knowledge for which i hold
hardened ears of the ones to come hold tomorrow
yet do not take the salvation from the past

depressing image of ageing "yet skin wrinkles upon skin that used to belong
to me" - I like the dark place you took this to.
