The old mans lost love

He loved her higher than the mountain tops,

Thoughts of her would not stop,

They were in love for so many years,

Now his love for her turned into tears,

He wants her back oh so bad,

He misses everything they had,

Ever night he kisses her forhead,

Right before he goes to bed,

Every morning he has to calm her down,

The panic in her voice he hated that sound,

She used to be so happy all the time,

But all timers took over her mind,

She doesnt remember who he is,

She doesnt know she loved him and had their 2 kids,

Its been a month now of this goin on,

The kids have begged him to put her in a home,

He cant bring himself to do it though,

Its the right thing this he knows,

One morning she woke up in a panic,

She slipped and fell on her head she landed,

He ran to her he saw the blood red,

Leaking still from the back of her head,

He bust into tears sqeezed her tight,

Told her everything will be alright,

All the regret washed over him he blamed himself,

2 weeks later after soaking in tears on how he felt,

One night he went to where they fell in love,

He spread her ashes from the mountains above,

He turned around took a deep breath,

Leaped off the rock and fell to his death,
