Essay content:
My cheeks are wet with tears
Eyes close of their own accord
As I face my worst fear
Wrinkled skin and liver spots
Arthritic hands and knees
Dementia creeps upon me
Give back my memories
Retired and on the scrap heap,
Or a life of leisure?
Gone way past my sell by date,
Or time for my pleasure?
Mortgage, kids, job loss worries,
I’m at the half way stage
Half of three score years and ten
I feel weighed down with age
Officially an adult
The world is mine to take
Anything I want, I’ll be -
So suck dust in my wake
I like being small, it’s good
Mummy looks after me
The Sun is always shining
And Daddy’s home for tea
Please don’t make me go out there
It’s nice and warm in here
If I go out, they’ll smack me
And it’ll all end in tears... displayed 300 characters
