Unrecognizable Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Stillness of silence rifles along memories, awakening them
with happy sorrow over having lived through them.
Solitaire puzzles anchored in past years fill many hours now,
as I climb into age upon final shores.
Disguised as an older woman, walking down the same paths of
yesteryear, yet they no longer recognize me.
I'm just an image fastened within a mind, broken apart by
death's relentless pressure in the aging reality of my
future life on earth.
