Re: Philosophers of the Century
Age is a relative thing.
You hear snap crackle pop at the breakfast table. and its' just your back.
You try to straighten the wrinkles in your socks and find out it's your skin.
You only call your partner "Honey" "love" and "Darling" because you forgot hr name years ago.
You can't quite remember when you started forgetting things
You keep repeating yourself, You keep repeating your self.
