Aged

Circling ideas of fun
Laughing and dancing and some
Kissing and touching.

Sitting in front of the screen
Alone and observing the scene
Of others and their lives abundant
Isn’t it something?

Wrinkles and slowness and few
moments of loving the view,
Warmth from the river of burning
Can’t stifle the swell of my yearning
For you.
