Just Thoughts and Nothing Else

Age is but a number but a number that takes it's toll.
Age means you've gotten more wisdom
if you are that lucky soul.

So today as I look in the mirror and try to figure this out,
I can't recognize the woman there and I'm really starting to shout!
Whatever happened to that youthful look?
What happened to my face?
What have those many years took
That time has just erased!

So as the years progress for us
We try to hang on dearly
To the things that made our hearts profess
Our thoughts of love so nearly.

For it is today that you have noticed
That time has passed you by
But have you tried to remember
The things that you have tried?

You tried to catch the moments
that have caught you by surprise
Remember the ones that took your breath away
and sometimes made you cry?

So as you sit and reflect upon your life.
Keep in mind that it was yours
and it was pretty all right!

You may not have won a Pulitzer
Or even the lotto either
But life gave you all that you would accept
And didn't think much of your behavior.
