Getting Older

Folder: 
innocence

ive been playing that tune of childhood again

the one that i was so fond to play

slowly and gently breezing past me

softly, slipping and fading away

the song that had sung such a tune

has gone down with the moon

its been so many years

since i remember my mothers touch

as i used to feel so long ago

since i realized my fathers love

which i used to curse and take for granted

These memories sweet and sour

will soon be erased in the end of the hour

the times ive been through, thick and thin

will not enable me to see them again

maturity has taken so much away

to a life consumed by decay

my memories have finally left my sight,

the only thing left to see is the stuttering

dim light.
