you still hold my hand

we're old, you and I
it happened so fast
I see you're face toughen, but nothing stops that smile
and in each crease and fold
a child's pain, a lost parent, a bad day
all overcome - together
and as I sit and look at these feet of mine
that have walked so lightly, and run so freely
etched with blue but still holding
I touch your leg in the night
and as I look at these hands and what they have created
and what they touched
sometimes hurting, sometimes helping
I take a breath, and I smile
as I realize that no matter what
whenever I reach out
you still hold my hand

it's nice to know there are some relationships that can last the test of time, you and the old man are one of those, and I got to see that with my own eyes once upon a time.
tell him I said boo, if you see this, and you two don't change, you're perfect the way you are.

nice to see your name!!
I try not to change but dang these wrinkles keep poppin' up with the grey hairs - next thing you know I'll have granny whiskers and a ponch
yup - we'll be rockin' together through the ages - it'll be in rockin' chairs though

Reach for my hand
And see it crumble
Turn to dust
Upon your touch

i love you,but im..............callin out.........callin out
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key
