Walking in the Avenue

i stood in front of the mirror this morning
i can't believe what my eyes see
white hair and wrinkles
leaving those years behind our
memories
all of those laughing and crying spree

i remember when we used to walk
along the avenue with nothing in our pocket but a dime and a quarter
i hold your hand and walked inside a fastfood
where they have a promo

i got the fries and i passed you over the cheeseburger
seeing your smile and wrinkle in your eyes
while eating
makes me wonder we can make it
together

and now, years have passed
and we are no longer walking
empty pocket
and neither me empty handed
coz there you are by my side
brushing off my white hairs in my face

and me touching your wrinkles in your eyes and nose
makes me wonder how beautiful you are still to see now that we are aging and fragile
walking in cane and you holding my hand
afraid that i might fall down the avenue
while walking holding hands together
