TOO YOUNG TOO BE OLD

I imagine when I am seventy years old...

If I make it...

Everyone wants me to slow down...

I have watched many people sit and sit and sit...

Watching T.V.

Stuffing faces...

Sleep...

Sit sit and sit...

I wonder if what they be doing when they take their last breath...

Do we go back to being babies?

Only difference being...

When babies are babies...

They eat, sleep, and poop...

That's all they do...

And puke alot...

Everyone does everything for them...

Please Dear God...

Don't turn me back into a baby...

Thank You...

Hugs
