Old men

That is an old poem Written by Aldo kraas

Old men you look a lot like me

You lived a long life

Until you were 91

You wife died before you

So, you were lonely

Living in a condo all by yourself

You were blind because of the diabetes

And you were very isolated

Old men

When I lived in a condo I was also lonely

And isolated

Now I lived in a nursing home

There are people to talk to

They tell me I will live until 91

I have diabetes also

Every time I visited you

You had cried so much

You enjoyed my visit

Old men

You died in your sleep

I also hope to die in my sleep

Old men

I am living in a different country now

Were there is no child labour

Old men

You have feelings also

Old men

I have feelings also

Old men

I am human

And you are human also

Old men

We made you a chess set

So you could keep busy

But you never played chess

Old men

You hardly ate anything when they feed you

You had lost a lot of weight because of that

Old men

Now you are dead

And resting in peace in heaven
