Middle Age



 

In youth each day dawns new.
A clean slate, a new race to run.
Begin what was forgotten,             
Finish what was yesterday begun.


But now I see the truth.
Each day is one lap in a long race.
I am nearer the end,
Playing an impossible catch up.

Each lap brought hard lessons. 
Every mistake is replayed.
But my eyes are on dusk, a clear view,
Still hoping to fall no further behind.
