The Walk

What is wrong little girl?

An old woman asked

The young girl replied:

My life is sad and unfair

Of all those I’ve loved

Have left me all alone

The old woman said:

“Look my heart is full of scars

For all those I loved and now are gone

But fear not for I cherished all
You are not longer alone

For I am here to stay

I am what you will be

In years to come

When you shed all your tears

For lovers and friends

Those who have come and left”

So, you see those two

The old and the young

Walking hand by hand

Through the endless night
is only one
