Old To Me

Old to me
Means old

But old,
to me,

Can mean ancient:
Kings of war
Crowns and stone castles

Rugged:
A tree withstanding an axe

Raw:
Cracked winter skin

No.
Old to me
Means old.
Old like that man over there on that bench
Staring at
Nothing. With his belt buckle at his belly button.
Man! old people are so old.

Old to me means mature and awesome, like, man I wish you were older.

i like to pause for an uncomfortable amount of time between "man!" and "old people are so old"
