A lost Poet Poet Free verse

Growing older

I am so often here these days:
sitting, 
looking, thinking.

I crave stillness,
but things are always on the move,
are never going to stop.

Perhaps it is a condition
of growing older,
to be afraid of change,
to be afraid of what change means.

But I still sit here,
still watch, still ask,
over and over, 
where these waters are going.
