Sad End

My life has brought me to this point; existence now is out of joint. I cannot walk, my knees won’t hold; I cower here, no longer bold. I only have my memories of better days, a winsome tease. When then a youth, was full of life; now all I face is daily strife. I hope the end will soon be near and life beyond now will bring cheer. So willingly I leave this Earth, where of glad times, I suffer dearth.

Thanks, Line. I only wish I did not feel compelled to write poems like this.
