Ten more years

I have said it before,

 and at times it becomes painful.

I want to become a hermit.

  Longing for peace,

    and silence.

I have to wait.

Niece is fifteen,

 and I am the executor.

So,

 I have to help raise her,

  and wait until she is twenty-five.

Make the best of it.

I have ten years of conversations.

She gets to help set up my cave.

responsibilities like these will make or break a person, caring for children, even teenagers, will change a person luckily, its usually for the better.
