Old age doesn’t scare me
It feels like a long lost friend
We don’t even have to reacquaint
Been training since I was young
The aches and pains of old age
Are symptoms of my chronic illness
I grieved my lost youth in youth
This is the only bright side I find
From all the bad days I lived through
My body was already in disrepair
Old age is just another milestone.
