We Age Every Day

Time
when death walks on my line
mine



1-6-1 contest writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
Write a three-lined poem with a syllable count of 1-6-1 where line one has 1 syllable, the second line has 6 syllables and the last line has 1 syllable. All lines must rhyme.

Example:

Breath
Stolen by crystal meth
Death


I see my friends and wonder, "How did they get so old?" Then, I look at the mirror and recall. Every line my face wears is a memory of smiles or of tears. Time is a blessing and a curse.
