Poetry

Do not regard me by my age
I am the sum of my experiences not my years
I had to evolve beyond the trappings
Through years of striving to be genuine
To shake off the shackles of her pomposity

I sought friends who would teach me to
Open my mind to the new
Let me not feel separate from others
Hanging in space and time away from
The experiences that should be mine

Let me show that now I have evolved
into a feeling writing, creative person
and given myself permission
and time to explore

Tell me not you are 60
Do not presume that I will conform
To your expectation
Of how I should be
Do not regard me by my age

Description: This poem was written in an angry response to people always judging me by my age, not my personality.
