The Mirror

I look in the mirror

And what do I see?

Some old lady looking back at me!


How did this happen?

Where did the time go?

I used to be cool & in the know!


Wrinkles, age spots

Is there a new one today?

If I count them, I won’t say!


Inside I’m still a babe

Witty, attractive, in my prime

Truth be told, running out of time!


What’s the next step?

Do I give up & let the gray show?

I’m just not ready to let it go!


Do you just stop caring?

Blame it on all the years?

Some of these thoughts bring me to tears!


I won’t give up!

I’ll fight it every step of the way!

Make it all count, every single day!


If I hang out at rest homes

Eye candy I’ll still be

Suddenly the young chick, hey look at me!
