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
