I am getting older each and every day.
I can’t do all the things that I could do in work or play.
Yes, I’m getting old,
Not as sharp as I once was or so I’m told.
At a dinner with family and friends; I made a mistake, I spilled my drink.
Another day at the mall; to remember where I parked my car, I had to really think.
No matter what I do or how well it goes,
Let me make a mistake; you can see it happen, the anxiety grows.
People immediately jump to conclusion.
Is it the Parkinson’s or is it old age? which one is causing all this confusion?
No matter the facts,
Nothing is worse, we should just relax.
Mistakes or accidents can happen any day,
It doesn’t mean we need to be watched, not at work or at play.
All I ask is, just be fair, as you watch me get old.
I deserve to be a little eccentric, a little bold.
