Sadness consoled
A heart so old
Happiness dissolved
a tale unknown
I walked quietly
feeling gold
But their looks told me
I am quite old
I kept eyes down
Feeling low
I hid tears now
Time you show
Tomorrow is better
Love unsold
Age don’t matter
Then the echoes told
– Jan @jahnavigouri

As I’m getting old I’ve noticed that there is this belief that elderly people should be relegated to the background. It’s particularly noticeable when I go for my evening walks, people look at me strange because I sing and bop along. I think I’m going to get deemed eccentric, but, as your poem demonstrates superbly, being subservient only brings unhappiness
