Ageing Disgracefully

It's pleasing to see that it happens to everyone, all of us have to grow old. Those who you envied, their charm and good looks have tried to fight time but it's taken its toll. Once they were handsome, suave and good looking everyone knelt at their feet, now they seem haggard, the cost of good living and no-one looks twice as they walk down the street. Once they were famous and everyone knew them, their names were on everyone's lips, But these days they're passé, ignored and forgotten, The Casino of Life has taken their chips. They paid out a fortune to hold on to youthfulness money they frittered away, For now it seems wasted and no-one would guess the effort it takes to look good everyday. So if you feel old when you stare in the looking glass don't even give it a thought. For out there in tinsel town botoxed and shriveled are many regretting the future they bought.
