I am middle-aged, but I don't hear you telling me that.
In finnish, I could be yours.

The Sun
You can see me, but you can not look at me.
You can see the sun in the sky but looking directly at it could damage your eyes
I can be gone or around for months at a time.
There are places in the world where the sun doesn't set (Midnight Sun) or doesn't rise (Polar Night) for months at a time.
I am middle-aged, but I don't hear you telling me that.
The sun is a middle-aged star but is also approximately 4.6 billion years ago, so not middle-aged in human terms.
In finnish, I could be yours. (thanks to jafe)
"sun" is dialectal Finnish for "sinun" (yours).
Originally: The Finnish for sun is aurinko which sounds like our inko.
