So many- gone before us these past years- dear friends and family have left our side, to whom we said goodbye with heartfelt tears. We shared such joyful times with kin and peers, through ages when no worries were implied; so many- gone before us these past years. Yet, time does not stand still, but leaps and veers in ways, we never dreamed it would decide to whom we said goodbye with heartfelt tears. So like a roulette wheel, age chooses, blears those sick and weak we hug at their bedside; so many- gone before us these past years. With those now left, we share, from yesteryears, good memories of those held dear inside- to whom we said goodbye with heartfelt tears. And now, we hold hands tight and hide our fears- which one of us will join them on death's ride. So many- gone before us these past years- to whom we said goodbye with heartfelt tears.
