DEMISE

Old man walking on the street,
tripped, stumbled, hurt his face and teeth,
Staggering home, he fell on the bed,
Doctor arriving, declared him dead.

His only daughter, torn with grief,
For she had been with him just a brief,
Confused, dazed at the sudden end,
Father-"Alone, why did I send?"

Now, everything has gone awry,
The whole world has become bleary,
Father, I miss you terribly!
Despite people around, I feel lonely.
