Wiser now, ready to mount,

Draws sword, charges forward

Marches in tantrum, nev'r look backward,

Aging syndrome I could feel by n' by

Mirror reflection I could see,

Tiger in me no more nor rumbling sea

Does this mean goodbye?

Surely these are symptoms

Once flawless skin cracks dry, crumble,

Dr Alzheimer starts to come in, mumble

This life doom...

Cognitive ability weakens

Memory lost in oblivion,

Imagery disappears in vision,

It's time to awaken...

Bright heavens faded

Familiar faces, prints illegible,

Eagle's eye disabled,

White opaque blockaded

The flesh weak, spirit strong

To make love unbearable,

Of bearing offsprings insufferable,

Agony prolonged...

Comes inevitable dawn, tender

Life's regrets aren't accepted

Winners, losers not rejected

Retreat or surrender?

Having grey, white hair

Sign of strength, wisdom,

Apostle of judicious kingdom,

Chosen as God's heair

Behold! Like a thief in the night

Darkness comes in, so warm,

Some peace, no alarm

Ol' man's eye oh...closes tight
