Out Dated Is it me? Am I outdated? Can't he seem to understand That everything these years I've hated, Stem from drinking, beer in hand. A party lasts until wee hours, Late, when sun begins it's rise. No longer teens, what is the power To empty keg, see it's demise. I've thought about the years before me, Knew back then, the draw it had. But after 50 years of age, he Should know that it's kind of sad To need to prove, he still can do it Drink and stay up 'til sun's rise. Is it me, am I outdated? As anger flows from tender eyes. Chances are, this match that once was Heaven scent, has lost it's way Skirting issues, town's abuzz As all share in the same display. Yes, I must be long outdated, Satisfied with life, at ease. Never needing drink, be sated Rather love, the moment's seize Of all that lays the world before me Never needing numbing feel. Wanting only guarantee That I am what is needed, real. Though he's back, but temporary Respect is what I've earned, deserved. Am I really that outdated? Why does it make me so unnerved? ~Wynter just a bit of venting....

I agree with Arthur here, he is outdated not you. Have have grown and matured as most of us do. He is stuck in adolescence. Sad really. Well expressed. LW All writing comes |

indeed Wynter. . . you've only gotten better. . . and there's nothing that's more outdated than someone who's still living in the past. . . excellent. . . ------------------------------------------------------ To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
