Age Qualms

Writer: Armaan YusufArmaan Yusuf

8 years passed and I never would’ve thought

The rhymes I concoct will raise me to the top

Exponential growth leads to an even worse drop

But I never did hit my peak, so uphill I still walk


With a sudden fear of when I might slip

When will people stop bothering with the kid

A young prodigy who’s too old to be cheered

Saturating their minds and then disappeared


In short, what I meant is that all is pretend

What I wish to prevent is inevitable in the end

Fire burning within, extinguished by the wind

Gone and forgotten, my destiny is written


Cause once I get older, who would even care?

Every middle-aged man is a poet in his spare

My age is my X factor, it’s why people share

Losing my charm, worse than a few grey hairs
