THE MATURE MALE SERIES PRESENTS A POETIC RECITAL: REFLECTION ON GROWING OLDER

GROWING OLDER…

life is a compression of many years,

not summarized in seconds,

the moment may refresh our hearts,

yet we are growing older,

were i to face my greatest fear,

the worst one would be dying,

each second burnt away from life,

brings death a little closer,

if i let passion drown my soul,

before death could claim it,

making a bonfire of my life,

would not make it bolder,

so i will look outside myself,

where there is need of healing,

to bless the future and the past,

when i look o’er my shoulder…
