Feeling Like a Fool

by Lexi Hilife - Leo

I'm not numb
I'm not angry
I'm embarassed
Only for myself

I tried to show you
This thing that did not exist
A flower that never lost it's blush
I was interupted by a loud hush

External beauty that will never last
Unable to accept what grace should be
That which is living has no permanent cast

Changing changing always like the weather
Seperation from what not one of us can hold together
Nature unquestionably has a rule

I tried to ignore it now I'm left
Feeling like a fool                          Lexi Hilife

Reason for writing:

    Trying to learn how to grow old gracefully. Not a very 
original concept but one we probably all reflect upon.
12 more days Happy 50th Birthday to me.
