Well.... nothing need be said
HE fell behind
unable to cope
still his hands joined in prayer
for her, his beloved
he never stopped dreaming
but pushed them to reality through her
each time she ventured
he listened carefully to her adventures
each time she hesitated wanting courage
he egged her on to defy fear
at times when tasks seemed mundane
she paused to think of him
life was to her a promise to keep
to achieve what should have been his as well
the good god aided
smilingly holding her hand
as she traversed the paths meant for two
for in one life she juxtaposed the two
it takes courage to live one's life to the brim
and of living it for others... well nothing need be said.
