One Day When I Feel Aged

(31/03/2013) When my sister tells me about her idol I think I was like that When I bragged about my fave band rascal Ok, I’m older now When my brother asks me to help him with his assignment Well nobody helped me when I was in college, so I say no Wait, that must have been as-many-as-his-age ago Dear God, I’m old When my student holding her birthday card That big colorful number 4 stares at me behind glitters ridge Wow, that multiplied by at least 9 will go near my age DAAAAANG! I am that old! --------------------- Well sometimes I feel this way, but life is too fun to fill with this kind of thing, rite? :D Inspired by Aging Contest By Black Eyed Susan
