She calls and he does not answer

She’s alone now, her sister gone these past four years and he has just left.  She calls out for him but there is no answer but the silence and my tears.  I go to comfort her but she turns her back for it is not me she looks for.  Her brother was 89 and her sister 81 when they left this world for the next.  She is 88 now.    I fear she will follow them both sooner than later now and my heart will truly break for they are my children.
