Accepting of the aging process
Yet fighting and not embracing it,
My mind feels young but my body doesn’t
I struggle to master the balance of this,
No time for exercise now
Because of pressures of work,
Maybe this is the reason
Why my body constantly hurts,
Bowel disease and high blood pressure
Under active thyroid to boot,
This is what is taking its toll
This is what’s making me feel old,
Yet in my mind I am fighting hard
To keep the youth in me alive,
It’s not a mid life crisis I’ve contrived
Instead it’s annoying that I can enjoy my life,
A lot more than I am able to now.
