too old to be too young
too young to be to old
lost somewhere in the middle
constantly rebranded Indifferent
somewhere too close to my heart

i'll etch another slash
onto the tree of my life
it is
neither small but strong
nor strong but small
but indifferent
blending in perfectly
to be
Nobody

based on others, i've lived
lived far too long
according to Your humble mind
i've experienced a mere wave
of an ever powerful sea

expanding roots to the pool of knowledge
blindly with too much hope to cope with
or
to continue to blend in with the world
as it closes in ever quicker
both show no Will of the
heart
soul
mind
spirit

but alas,
Roots
my roots have spread far enough
i stand alone with no aid
now tis my time
tis time oh faithful roots
time to retire
goodbye horrid Age
i was tired when i wrote this. im not gonna change it even though i know it could be a lot better. i like it just the way it is. :shrug:
