Beyond my eyes



How did I get in here?
This body so old.
I can't belong here.
Can't you see behind these eyes.
I'm in here playing games.
Games,like football,and rugby.
I'm running and jumping.
I'm king of the hill!
Don't you remember me?
I wrote poems to the beauties.
They made them cry.
I climbed mountains,and danced until dawn.
I was the strongest,the leader,never afraid.
Wait,young friends,and i'll be right there!
It takes but a minute to get out of this chair......
