UNSUCCESSFUL FLING
The young lady
slim, tall and confident,
crossed my path as she ran.
While I, in thick sweater
beanie covered head
mask on, balancing my slow stride
continued to walk.
Few moments, hardly any blink
the vision in front disappeared, hallowed.
Stamina of a youth fleeting past,
an equate with light
how I envied her.
My youth returned in shadow
dauntless courage of the past,
closing my eyes, I seemed to locate it,
but gone like a puff of wind.
While memories of youth
still cleaving, old age intersected it
with age related health problems
hiding in the dark corner.
My trial to relinquish it
ended as unsuccessful fling,
but appeased!
