I shook the hand
Of a 97 year old man today

My grandfather
And I couldn't stay
Much longer
Than 40 minutes

Not wanting to grow
To Love him even more

Becuase I know he
Does not have that
Much more time here

And the more time I spend
Will mean just more sadness
When he passes away

And so I recorded his voice
So I would always remember
This visit
