Ages

I cannot for the life of me,
Believe so indisputably,
With such profound stupidity,

That I've forgot my age.

Content in my complacency,
removed from the depravity,
of mental incapacity,

That I'd forget my age.

When time escapes so wistfully,
Contrived our selves our folly,
An ignorance so blissfully,
Laments to melancholy.

An edging movement forward jerks awake the sleeping mind,
Adrift upon the open seas of ever flowing time, 
And what for all the wasted years, that pass the turning page,

I cant believe for all my life,

That I've forgot my age.
