you may not be aware

There is a moment in middle age 
when you grow bored, angered 
by your middling mind, 
afraid. 
 
That day the sun 
burns hot and bright, 
making you more desolate. 
 
It happens subtly, as when a pear 
spoils from the inside out, 
and you may not be aware 
until things have gone too far.
