I grow tired of this recycled life,
an existence patched together
from remnants
of what has gone before,
always pretending,
hiding behind forced smiles,
taking pleasure in the knowledge
that the thirty years left to me,
is ten years less
than what I've already endured.

You sure did this well, and sometimes it feels that the mundane is repeated so often that it is recycled.  Summer has a way of cheering everyone up though for at least a few months.  I liked this.

Let's spend less time worrying about when our life is going to end, and more on when it's going to start!

one hopes it is wisdom that patches the harsh remnants together...
that way the thirty yet to come may not be as recycled and redundant...
wonderful work here

...all the good themes have been turned into theme parks.
