The Journey
The old man cried as he awakened in bed
While missing his Mrs. he yearned for her touch
"I have lived far to long" to his nurse he said
I never thought losing could hurt so much
Ashamed to admit that he had to be fed
And keeping her picture in hand he did clutch
The journey through life is both happy and sad
Yet still worth the living and knowing we had...
