Sixty

My heart felt heavy when I saw your picture. A beautiful pixie even still as we get older. What should have been and what will never be. And time to dream about you in eternity. What is my name, I cannot speak. Months go past and I feel so weak. That's how I felt back when I was young, Unable to make my stand or feel strong. A beautiful woman turned sixty today. I wish I was there to give her a hug. And say to her maybe we might take a walk.
