All Me

All Me

​​​​​​As the years accumulate
and gently rain down on me
my mind has slowed
to such an extent
that I have landed
in a place
of contentment

My universe has slowed
to a glorious crawl

I am not stressing anymore
about shit beyond my control

Happiness is this acceptance

But in the back of my mind
buried beneath the suppression
I know the grade of my decline
will land me in dementia
like my parents before
when we called it senility

I'll descend there eventually

But not today

Gonna for once take it easy

Close the time capsule
and just be
