fading

griping & whining
always complaining
never at ease
decades of life
with only a few
maybe remaining

has it all been
always for nothing
memories of triumph
faded and gray
arthritic aching
clumsy & shaking
wheezing & coughing
ending the day

try to remember
may in december
as each dying ember
turns into ash
