Cruel Fate

HE~ He has met her before He knows that Maybe once or twice Yet, where and when he is just not sure SHE~ He is in good spirits today I think he remembers me Yet , yesterday he asked my me name Shouted at me to go away TOGETHER~ Fifty-three years wed A loving , happy marriage Kindred spirits, best friends Now , strangers navigating the unknown instead
