Tired of Old Age

Tired of Old Age

Age tells on me,
I'm no longer
The person I used to be
'Cause ailments beset me.

I love life, but
it doesn't reciprocate.
Instead, it assails me,
Won't let me be.

I'm tired of aches and pains,
Of tossing and turnig,
In my bed at night.
I want an end of this plight.

I'm tired of doctors, meds and such,
Old age may be a part of life,
But, I could do without the
Burden and strife.
