Exceptional For those who are feeling their age. I Hate Being Old by RodG Betrayal writing prompt entry

My body aches. I feel betrayed. That back of mine was doing fine until I bent to tie my shoe. Sharp daggers now attack my spine. These knees announced they're finished too. My body aches. I feel betrayed. They buckle when I try to walk. Without a cane, I am afraid. I dare not nap in chair, on couch, or pain in neck I'll surely get. My body aches. I feel betrayed. These constant breakdowns make me fret. That Tylenol, Advil, Aleve don't do no good. I've even prayed God calls me soon, gives me relief. My body aches. I feel betrayed.
