For her

I sit with Eleora

She is old

Older than anyone I know

I hold her hand

And she smiles

Even though she does not say anything.

So many times

She has sat with me

Holding my hand

Not saying a word

Because sometimes

You don’t need words.

Sometimes you don’t even remember

Those words.

She was always there for me

Even when I thought

She didn’t understand.

She was there.

And so I will be there

For her.
