Dementia - Sunburst

It has been so long

But my frail memory unfolds

Reflecting the pictures

Of forgotten dreams

I have been so strong

But life has been

So complicated

Down on my knees

I collect the pieces of myself

Every second

A shade of reality

Struggling

Breathless

In my own sanity

Give me time

Erase my sorrow

Close my eyes

I don’t want to follow

Why?

Just why do we lose ourselves

In vanity?

Another day

Has fade away

Like a trace

Upon the sand

I am screaming

But no one is here

To save me

Every second

A shade of reality

Struggling

Breathless

In my own sanity

Give me time

Erase my sorrow

Close my eyes

I don’t want to follow

Why?

Just why do we lose ourselves

In vanity?

Give me time…
