You feel the onset,
a coming of age
chapters that came
now changing phase
pregnant mothers
of children's firsts
hints at marriage
or spiritual birth
Pages turn,
you can't halt it
hope to grow wise
if you can help it
the rhythm of life
is always of change
if you remain stagnant
your skin will age
To see the end,
oh a noble feat
a crying old woman
of 93
she lost her husband
her first and young
this was years ago
arms of iv's
and infected blood
calm doctors
of objective question
silent nurses
at medical attention
Though chapters change,
not all are the same
a spring to come
or hell's cold rain
I wish you the best,
upon your journey
