Please Hold Onto Me
Please hold onto me Nana,
Hold on as long as you can.
I know it must be hard to trust me,
Since you don’t know who I am.
I want to help you remember,
However I am afraid it’s gone too far.
But I remember everything for us both,
From pinched cheeks to trips in the car.
You taught me how to be strong,
But right now I am not.
In a wide world full of people,
You’re really all I’ve got.
It’s hard to comes with,
As physically there’s nothing wrong.
Nana, it’s your mind that’s left us,
I fear it won’t come along.
We’ve got so much left to do,
I have so much left to say.
I wish I could protect you from the fog,
But it’s impossible for this to go my way.
Death hasn’t taken your body Nana,
He has kidnapped your memories.
He is cruel and unjustified,
I promise he’s making some enemies.
Please hold onto me Nana,
Hold on as long as you can.
I will love you forever and always,
But time is never outran.
I wrote this poem about my Grandmother who has dementia. This comes from my heart.
