I wondered where you were and why you had a vacant stare
Your loving smile had faded and your comfort wasn't there
I saw a faint reminder of the person I once knew
Your body looking similar but inside it wasn't you
I was too young to understand the battle going on
For you to guide me safely when your sanity had gone
I know now why, I feel it too and none can really see
The constant fight in every night and day to keep me be
