my self, instead

i found myself sitting lone
at the edge of the water
looking to its mirror
for time to flow
in its mirror i found myself
seeing as if for the very first
the hand of time
change from youth to old
passage of my hand
disturbs it so
yet it's coolness
not displeasing
but a freshness
to my aging soul
and i look to the waters
for a youth that fled
only to find
my self
instead
