Seeing my reflection...
Upon mirrored shop windows....
Fleeting glances...
At the corners of my eyes...
Only yesterday...
Did childhood adventures beckon...
Only to be...
Unceremoniously...
Catapulted into adulthood...
Years...
Fly past...
At an alarming rate...
Accelerating with every year...
Tick-tocking life clock...
When did the sun...
Start setting...
Upon the distant horizon...
Fast forwarding me...
Towards my corporeal demise...
Looking glass eye...
Give me an extended smile...
So I may go...
The extra mile...
With a Sparkplug of life...
For a few more years...
Before I hit...
My expiry date...
Place a cross...
Upon your calender...
So I'll be packed and ready..
Upon your return...
To walk the path...
Through St. Peters Gate...
Looking back...
Upon Life's...
Roller-coaster ride...
Imprinted footsteps...
Upon the sandy sea-shore...
Washed away...
By a rising tide...
Never to walk...
This way again...
