Dazed And Confused

         I’m sixty three years old but my
Brain and heart doesn’t seem to know
It doesn’t matter how often my
Body tries to tell them so

But my brain has been showing some
Little signs that it might be coming around
It’s starting to hint that things are
Decaying as it leaves clues to be found

I’m in complete denial despite the evidence
The incomplete thought process
The cooking disasters where measuring
Milk becomes one huge mess

The times I am easily distracted
Can’t remember things I’ve been told
All of these things in combination
Are signs that I’m getting old

I try to always look on the bright side
At least I keep myself amused
Though I spend a lot more times
These days being Dazed And Confused
