Have You Ever Struggled

Have you ever struggled to choke back the tears
That yearned to flow for the long gone happy years
When you were fitter, healthier and younger and of life's worries free
Life never returns to what it used to be

Age has brought to you some wisdom but also self doubt
And you now worry of things you used not to worry about
The fear that comes with ageing of growing senile and death
For each one of us of air a final breath

Time eventually does become everyone's foe
You are not the person you were years ago
Anti ageing creams and hair dyes may help to cloak time's decay
But they will not lengthen your life span not even by a day

Your best years behind you and old age is ahead
Our life span in time seems short we will be forever dead
We worry about ageing and dementia and losing our mind
But happiness once lost few ever again seem to find.
