As i grow older…

As I grow older, I need my glasses,

so I can marvel at the pinpoints of millennia on the blue-black sky,
and recognize the glimmers of galaxies in a stranger’s eyes.
so I can understand the reasons of nature on the evolutionary sly,
and admire the poignancy of forever in the sunset’s goodbyes.

As I grow older, I need my glasses in order to see why.

so I can understand the reasons of nature on the evolutionary sly,
and admire the poignancy of forever in the sunset's goodbyes.

As I grow older, I need my glasses in order to see why.
