The one that stays

He was a senior 
Few years older
Work in the day
Classes at night
Hardworking to get money
And get into university 

They met at university
Same class, to be exact
Charmed by his religious principles
They got married

During his golden years
Went abroad for some time
She stayed here
Loyally managing

Three kids
All grown up now
Valuable in their own fields
By her golden touch

Now he has grown older
So was she
80 years of living 
And still aging

Day and night 
She took care of him
No complaint to be heard
Just holding on patiently

Eventhough his memory was fading
His love for her never did
"My queen", he declared
To everyone he meets.
