Growing Old

Growing Old

A Poem by PoeticChico
"

One day when you are "older" you might ask yourself what happened? will you remember?

"

When I get up and see the sun from my window

When we stand up and realize we are late once again

When you walk in a dark path just to find the light

That’s when we remember we are getting old

 

I grow up every day thinking I’ll see you again

I’m growing up so fast, there is no stopping now

I grow old and distanced but I keep on

I grow and grow to find a destination at last

 

Wash your face and clean your dirty shoe lace

Forget that painful breakup from yesterday

Clean your car seats and take a ride

You know life it’s too short to be stuck on today

 

Eat and drink with no immediate regrets

Throw yourself out there and chill

Hug a friend that will break your heart

Live on the fast lane waiting for the thrill

 

Have you arrive to your destination yet?

Enjoy the freedom of being young

Sing along all the popular songs

Because sadly life is a stupid bet

It seems like the days and the years are going faster and faster, I mean its almost Christmas again.
It sucks because life doesn't wait for you, time doesn't stop cause your not ready, life is cruel and hard allot of the time. I enjoyed this read so much and it really got me thinking.
You have a positive outlook on life I wish I did haha.

Refreshing! Step by step recipe on how to uncomplicate the life and live it without regrets. Such philosophy is greatly needed nowadays. As you said "life is a stupid bet" and we shouldn't relay on it. Peace&Love! Keep on writing! :-)
