Old age the final frontier
not easy by any means,
often painful on many levels
that is unknown in youth or middle age.
Which I believe is the most important
part of our lives,
If indeed we do have souls,
a heart that grows eternally,
and we take our love with us;
and all else drops away
or is purified into gold.
Until that final chapter,
most of us live in the in-between
of faith and doubt,
of hoping against hope,
for in this realm
we must always seek,
questions and never give up.
