Tireless

she spread the cover
he lay there resting
no consciousness
beginning of morning

he lay there resting
in order to start
beginning of morning
with such importance

in order to start
his schedule was filled
with such importance
in pursuit of wealth

his schedule was filled
though very taxing
in pursuit of wealth
the job was not easy

though very taxing
he was the best
the job was not easy
he had no replacement

he was the best
missed many dinners
he had no replacement
she should understand

missed many dinners
life became his work
she should understand
because it is critical

life became his work
his health was affected
because it is critical
couldn’t fix the pain

his health was affected
she spread the cover
couldn’t fix the pain
no consciousness

she spread the cover
he lay there resting
no consciousness
beginning of mourning
