Aging

Wasting my time

I take the mirror

and give a glance

someone talks to me

and I laugh

watching my face I discover

wrinkles around my eyes

for the first time I see

I am amazed

it is as if someone else

has come to laugh at me

to say “hello”

to me and to my life

I laugh again to verify

they are there, there´s no doubt

aging has arrived

Yes I know that feeling, but what I can't understand is why my hair is not as gray as my friends?

Nice work... I think we all age at different levels and in different ways...

It creeps on us, doesn't it? Whether we want it to or not...
