What Will I Do?


What will I do when I get old,

Will I sit in a chair and die,

Will I have people around me,

Will they be there for my final sigh…

 

Will they help me to dress,

Or can I do it alone,

Will they help me to eat,

Or will I be on my own…

 

Will I walk by myself,

Or with the aid of another,

Will I be able to tie my shoes,

Or need help of a sister or brother…

 

Will anyone care for me,

Or will they make me atone,

Will my children be there for me,

Or will they let me die all alone, 

 

It is tough getting old, some of us never make it….
