AGE

When did I change
What happened to me
Where did the
Once me
Who isn't me
go
Why wasn't I warned
How is this
even possible
Who is this stranger
that isn't me
yet shadows me
in faded light
my flame is gone
and still I flicker
like a cigarette
not quite put out
or a 25 watt bulb
not strong ..like the 100
and black
is gray
a distant link to yesterday
