Old Man
By soloiq
Is that for me?
The Old Man said
No I replied
Stay in
your bed
You had a chance
to get your own
it's
not for sale
or even loan
Sure you had one
where'd
it go?
He said it died
...I said I know
How it
would shine
only took hope
then the strength
he needed
to cope
As mine fell to the floor
having lost it's gleam
I turned and left
the Old Man my Dream
