A Sense of Aging
C by Brad Corallo
Word count 121

Bourn upon the wings of years.
Finally make landfall.
In this unsuspected place; 
neither dreamed of nor imagined. 
 Inhabiting this life space 
carved out, through 
will and circumstance. 

It is strange here, 
familiar yet, still unmapped territories
like unseen pools of quick sand 
irregularly dot the foreground. 
The air does not nourish. 
Light and joy grow dim.
As if removed, I watch myself, 
from a distance
performing required actions.
Even accomplishment is unsatisfying.

I am not sure what happened. 
Something seems to have changed.
The question that remains, 
starkly illuminated:
Where do I go from here? 

Thus far, like the vast spaces between the stars
 the only answer has been cold silence.
