One More Year Old Feels Like Ten
by: Ronovan
One more year older
This last one felt like ten
I wonder why I go through it
Was it punishment for a sin
Yeah, I know, don’t worry
I’m just talking out loud
I know the good Lord don’t do that
He done took him up in a cloud
But still I don’t mind asking
Why, why did all of this happen
A year of my life has done gone
And a steady tap on the brain keeps tappin’
You would think I would get used to it
Waking without a solitary clue
But how do you grow accustom
To something that every day is new to you
Hmm . . . Yeah, I know it’s all good
I got my health and home and something
Haha, the health is the something
That I’m certain must be the crunching
One more year older
The next will feel like ten
I know it was the Enemy
That tries to drag me into the den
I must have been on the right track
Cause the Enemy don’t worry with those
That are already with him
He worries about those who are his foes
And to that I say Amen

I can identify all too well with your sentiment. “What matters most is how well you walk through the fire,” says Bukowski. I think it’s true. Moreover, scars heal tougher than the delicate skin once wounded. Happy birthday. xoxoxo P.S. I would absolutely love to hear these lyrical words paired with a steel guitar. 😉

😦 my face and heart frowns in sadness that you have written. But happy birth day anyway.
Maybe one day it will all come back to you crystal clear and you will know why things had to be this way.
