Wiped were all the memories

Her mind an empty slate

I watched my best-friend disappear

Was void of all her traits




I wanted to ask her why she left

If only I could see?

Wish I could go inside her mind

And bring you back to me




Sometimes were good, sometimes were bad

We took it day by day

But it was very difficult

To see her live that way




Although she left me mentally I saw her all the time

And though I cried when she was near

Physically she was fine



And though her memories were gone

The pain all stayed with me

Till the day she passed and left this earth

Her choice was to be freed



Sometimes I wish I could forget

I'd pay any cost

To hold her close one final time

And gain back what I lost
