B

Alone with Dememtia

I spent your whole life
Risking Everything I ever wanted
To make sure you were okay
Now I'm laying here incontinent
Waiting for my brief to be changed
My freedom is limited now
As is my movement
I know if this was my mother
Or even if this was you
I'd never leave her side
And id be right beside you too
But here I am alone
With nurses asking if Im okay
Without a response they nod there heads and walk away
Because even if i wanted to i couldnt answer anyway...
