Died old,
but still to young.
She lost her love.
The man of her dreams.
She couldn't go on living.
Couldn't do it without him.
He was her everything,
her knight in shining aurmor.

She died a month later.
Of what.
I think broken heart.
She loves him.
She couldn't go on.
After years together,
she couldn't stand being apart.
Not a year.
Not even a month.

The author's comments:
I moved from South Carolina to KentucyTennessee four years ago. I just moved back. After driving through my old neighborhood I found out our neighbor Mister and Miss Knapp died. Mr.Knapp died first, then just a month later Mrs.Knapp died to. So this is for that happy loving couple I'm so proud to have known before their time ran out.
