When I'm old and gray

When I'm old and gray
I won't sleep alone
I won't eat all by myself
I won't travel the world with my feet on both soles

When I'm old and gray
I'll cherish everyday with my heaven-sent
I'll never crush his heart
I'll do with him the Carpe Diem

When I'm old and gray
I'll do my best to conquer Alzheimer's--never to forget him
I'll do everything to show him how much I love him
I'll do things that were out of my comfort zone if it means a smile to him

Because thoughts that haunted me said that...

When I'm old and gray
Maybe,
I'll sleep alone
I'll eat alone
I'll travel the world except my soul

Maybe,when I'm old
I'll forget how to love anymore
I'll never let a thing called love shatter me out of my hopelessness
I'll then forget how love worked or if it really do exist

And maybe, when I'm gray
I'll be my family's burden
I'll die anytime and be forgotten in anyway--buried in deep oblivion
My existence will wither by the wind without a proof that I did make a life  on this beautiful world

so

When I'm old and gray
Or neither old nor gray
I'll love a man and him alone
In anyway,everyday

To leave him my regalia.
