AGE SOFTENED MY EYES

Age softened my eyes

Devoid of whys

No longer the questioning look

No longer the piercing hook

All answers I got

Unnecessarily I fought

The more I glared

The more life flared

Told me to surrender

But I corrected my blunders

My questions I stopped

My answers I got

Oh! how I did fret

Now all I forget

A wave in the stream

Moving in dreams

I hit the boulders

less, as I grew older

The same place we go

Where to no one knows

The stream ends in ocean

My life in emotions

All questions I dropped

All answers I got

Age softened my eyes

Devoid of whys.
