"ALZHEIMERS" - THE ROAD TO FORGETFULNESS . . .





HAVEN'T YOU FORGOTTEN SOMETHING . . . ?
 
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
A voice spoke to me within my mind . . .
Was it being ferocious or being kind . . . ?
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
Now to me in a more determined shout  . . .
That definitely had itself - so more clout . . .
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
Did I forget something in my own haste . . . ?
I stare into nothingness - my mind cased . . .
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
With it the voice continued to persist . . .
What is it that I've importantly missed . . . ?
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
As now comes to me as unknown faces . . .  
And now to me entire unknown places . . .
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
The reminisce of memories I can no longer find . . .
Once beautifully articulated - now to it - blind . . .
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
Staring into nothingness - nothingness in return . . .
As each and every memory - disappears in its turn . . .
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?

Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
The unknown faces there helping - me to remind . . .
Alzheimer’s - how could you’ve been - so unkind . . . ?
Haven't you forgotten something . . . ?
