Timeless Poem by Kayla Clark

Timeless

Rating: 3.0


Late nights
The echo of guns
Reaching new heights
We are the reckless ones

Twenty, now twenty-one
The chaotic oasis is lost
Responsibility has won
The bridge of adulthood is crossed

Children run around me
Ringing bells of laughter
Pain reminds me of my too-hot tea
Patience is acquired long after

Sixty, now sixty-one
Withered hands flip printed pages
The web of age is spun
Yet the youth in me rages
