Apart

The voice that commanded us Admonished us and rebuked Is so feeble The arms that comforted us Now need to be comforted The gait is not straight Needs a walker for support Where is all that poise! Unable to speak Only your eyes do the job They speak for you All of us surround you For you to be a part But you stay uninvolved and apart Know not what's Going on in your mind You speak not Cant see you like this Your old self we miss Don't give up so soon His grace will come soon

It's so hard to see our loved ones become elderly and their abilities diminish... this touches me deeply as I am caring for elderly parents now. very well done.
