"We had a good run didn't we?" inquires the worn voice of what used to be someone who held themself is such as way that the air around them buzzed with power and strength. After many years and trials, this weakened voice now belonged to the bedridden.

Oh, how Father-time is a thief.

"Yes Dear, we had the best." comes the reply from the person sat close beside the bed, hunched over it to hold the others hand and look them in the eye with a smile of the past as memories dance across each person's eyes.

The clock ticks on.

Even when you wish it wouldn't.
