As I lay in the bedroom, My own personal confinement' in which I oh so willingly created for myself, I feel myself on fire, My hands shaking out of utter frustration, fighting every tear welling up in my eyes with all that I have left of my sense of mind, But for what reason? to be strong, to reassure myself, I ask myself what use is it to be strong if your utterly alone, With no one to care weather your strong or not, So I let go, but just for a moment, I allow myself to remember the pain, the memories I locked away, hoping someday they would cease to exist, The troubling feelings that twist my heart and bring me to my knee's letting out slow puffs of breath I calm my emotions, wipe the water from my eye's , clear the tortured expression that once lay on my face, I leave the moment and enter back into the world I made myself believe in, I pretend to be strong.

Pretending to be strong
There once was a friendship A friendship that grew strong One that was durable and could survive all that went wrong The people in this friendship loved each other through blood, tears, and depression They stood by each others sides through Spite, anger,and loss of affection They fought for each others beliefs Held each other when one felt weak Trusted one another with everything But eventually the day came When their friendship wasn't the same And they ran Having each other to blame For the once proud friendships decay There once was a girl who yearned for what was lost She wanted her friendship no matter the cost So she gave up her pride With a plead and a cry She waited patiently for old friend to oblige But to her surprise her friend still insisted she had lied On the outside she shrugged and said at least I tried But on the inside she knew the pain would not subside That the friendship would be broken even after the day she died

The broken friendship
Time goes on as your memory fades, Alzheimer's eating away at your brain Stealing your happiness, Whilst leaving you frustrated, angry, in pain As the days go by names and faces begging to blur As the weeks weeks pass The faces and names forgotten Birthdays, anniversaries, family, non existent The continuing loss consistent And though deep down I know I still wonder Do you remember me? But to ask that question, Do I dare? Would it be nothing but a blunder So I wonder in silence, I hope in silence, I leave everything i feel silent The feeling of wanting to scream and cry, to hug my family and friends To say something meaningful and deep To make a fearless decision, Just take a leap Because life and memories don't last forever At any moment life can be severed All this never said out loud Pretending it doesn't exist makes me feel like I'm stuck in a storm cloud that's surrounding me, slowly but surely making me unable to breathe I feel my self gasp, As I say the words out loud at last Do you remember me? I say this to myself For now the feelings in my heart will remain on a desserted shelf I have to be strong for the family who has lost so much Do you remember me? This would destroy the whole bunch
