Reflection

I often think of you and wonder where you are a smile comes to my face  everytime
 I hear your name. I find myself sometimes 
         reminiscing about all the crazy things we use to do.

           All of a sudden I see an old woman looking at me with tears in 
        her eyes just then a tear fell from my cheek, It was then I realized 
        that old woman is me as I started to weep.

           I said dear Lord where did the time go I do not feel  old
         as the tears started to flow  
           
         Saying to my self time goes by so fast there is nothing can stop 
       you from gettin old as more tears stated to flow
