Even in Heaven
2 min readSep 15, 2023
There was an old man.
He lived inside an old house.
He was all alone.
In the cold, dark night
he could hear distant gunshots.
The fighting was near.
He had lost his wife
soon after the food ran out.
He cried all night long.
Deep in his old bones
he knew that his end was near.
He would see her soon.
