I Am 45 But Really 16

I may be 45 but I act like I am sixteen instead,
I never take responsibility it is something I dread,
I hover site to site in some hidden type of shame,
Point my finger at others and give them the blame.

this is kind of sad, Mourning. Is that a pen name by the way? It's cool. I am 55 but really 18 but simply for the reason that I am very young at heart!!
