even though you may get old and tired
and your body wither and shrink
your joints may creak and groan
like a weary engine
yet still
don’t let your soul dry up
your spirit is eternally young
timeless and free
it is not bound by the same rules
as your body
and our error
is to think it is
so let the body do its thing
but don’t be fooled
it is not you, and it never was
you are forever free
and open
don’t dry up
stay free until
your last breath
you are much too wonderful
for that fate.
