Old and Grey

Old and Grey

When eyes dimly flicker like the failing wick
And the wind howls through your bones
Like banshees race through the graveyard
Your cup of tea has grown cold and tasteless
Longing for the robe of immortality
Pulled back by the tugging flesh
Drawn closer to the fires of the past
The songbird still sings outside your window
