I'm through with staging...
My aging.
It seems to have come,
To leave me stunned and numbed.
...
What purpose do I serve...
If not to validate the presence of my existence?
Is there any other reason,
I have been blessed with life to live?
...
I may appear to be layered in crust,
And trusted to mold to eventually rust.
Yet kept is a deliciousness to go untasted,
Although I know when kissed,
...
People forget...
Who lifted veils from their eyes.
Opened closed doors.
And knocked old fences down,
...
It's often difficult for many to face.
However...
Life experienced is about change.
With acceptance, disappointments...
...
Why be around stuff that collects dust,
Just to rust!
And doing it with a pride done to strut.
Why...
...
The only time people seem capable,
Of admitting a truth they seldom refuse to do...
Is when they have run out of others to use,
With a blaming to claim them to be...
...
As expectations and having regrets,
Come and not from them to go...
There are some people who have shown others,
Disrespect and this done for decades...
...
The unconscious,
With their shut and vacant minds...
Are not often cautious,
When making inappropriate and offensive comments...
...
How many eyes will remain closed,
Or opened but refuse to see...
A creating of dilemmas with such frequency,
That an acceptance of a negligence...
...
