What do they know? What do they think?
How many years have passed beneath this crown of pink?
Reluctant to offer the secret of my age. Tend toward evasion when strangers pry. Yet new decade’s start may be time to reveal: All these years of mistakes we can all learn from.

But I’ve pictures to prove that it’s illusion. In my 23rd year looked barely 15. Is it lifestyle, genetics, or attitude’s credit? Look younger than I am but back hurts again.
And I know what I want to have!
The advantage of youth with all I’ve lived intact!
Can I stay up all night, feel fine the next day, and not revert to the shy insecure me? Moments I’d recreate if I could, some even redo, yet feel resolved…
Say to myself in the mirror! (Bright, tired eyes.) I wouldn’t give up any minute that I’ve lived! Not just sunshine but the cloudiest days, because it’s all added up to who I am now! I’m not happy all the time but I’m happy with…
