"Ninety-three years seem long But life is short - How youth seems strong But life is short - How you love and give, Life is still short - How "is" a few minutes ago Became a "was" Oh, life is so short."

Goodbye, Lolo
"Ninety-three years seem long But life is short - How youth seems strong But life is short - How you love and give, Life is still short - How "is" a few minutes ago Became a "was" Oh, life is so short."
I wrote this minutes before my grandfather died. It's sad that he went in this pandemic time. It's heart wrenching that we live on the same island yet separated by different region, province, municipality. So near yet so far. And we couldn't get into him and see him being burried.
