it's a long time
since I looked into the mirror
the fear is gone
the white hairs spreading
all the rest recognizable since then
when I was looking for the answers
in other peoples eyes
in the mirrors
I passed on my way
still trying and still learning
I've deided to go slower
than my patience does allow me
standing still, the sirens screaming
waiting for them to go silent once again
wondering if it will always be a fight
I slowed down to almost still
yet time is moving forward
my face slightly older
than my soul
