Shift in Time


Yesterday....


I was a child
young, innocent
dependent on my parents
full of hopes
of dreams
wishing to be successful
to be somebody someday.

Today....

I am in my middle life
experiencing midlife crises
have a family of my own
with wonderful and loving kids
who are starting to leave home
to earn a college degree
for their own good
for their future.


Tomorrow...


I don't know what it could bring
no children to care for
some dreams left unfulfilled
career unsatisfied
will be spending life alone
in my own humble abode.

Life is a cycle, a Shift in Time.
