All I see are strands of grey.
All I hear are creaking bones hidden by folds and wrinkles.
It won't be long.
Old skin.
Worn thin.
The slow march towards the inevitable end.
Years go by.
Years gone by.
Years go by and I'm still fighting those old eyes in the mirror.
(I'm still waiting here after all these years, staring into glass and silver.)
Those tired eyes of the fighter.
(I had always thought I'd be dead by now, I'm nothing but momentum.)
It won't be long until I'm throwing in the towel.
