Time goes by so fast,
I wonder where it all went?
I try to figure it out,
this time and where it was spent.
I never knew what old age was.
Just run, play, and have fun.
Being sick, old, and near the end.
To lose the life of a loved one?
Of course now I know the truth.
In this world we all leave our mark.
We all hope to go to Heaven
where they play those beautiful harps.
I never wanted to be
old and wrinkled like you.
You passed away when i was eight.
Now, I look in the mirror
and I see what is marked upon lifes slate.
Old age will without a doubt come.
My life has been good
throughout it all.
I am happy and I see I
look so much like you.
We will know each other
in my final call.
Life is wondeful and grand.
But I want you surely to know.
I think of you often.
I still love you from ever so long ago!
