I fear those silent days

I fear those silent days, the evident old age,
When days begin to fade,
When weakness begins its rage
And locks life in a cage
I fear those silent days, the evident old age.

The life which began, is now near its end,
When the bed becomes the friend,
When the speech has lost its end,
And when there is no love to lend,
I fear those silent days, the evident old age.

When the bones are fragile and the tone softens
And when you’re all dependant,
I fear those silent days, the evident old age.

When the memory lessens
When the body bed riddens,
And when smiles are hidden
I fear those silent days, the evident old age.

I know, soon I’ll be close by,
And face the EVIDENT OLD AGE!!
