Stick

You walk with me
Untiring, unmoved
I cannot move ahead
Nor can you behind

We stick together
Our life forever
I have one leg
Your have one leg
With you we have two legs

We stand, fall or rest
Not know what will come next
I give you a virtual life
You give me a leg
The day I meet my grave
You give some other a leg
