Alzheimer’s

Vital people once living rich lives,
Wake up one day locked inside,
From babes to teens to adulthood,
To older and slower ~ Regressing childhood,
The body is fragile as is the mind,
Making the elderly even more confined,
Gradually, losing parts of themselves,
Stored up memories laid on shelves,
Tension and fear invades their thoughts,
As they try to remember ~ All for naught,
Family members try to ease their fears,
As memories fade ~ All shedding tears,
They sense the darkness that goes unseen,
Pulling them deeper into a murky tureen,
Condemned and imprisoned is the soul,
Where Alzheimer’s lives ~ No ones consoled.

Truly a touching write. It is so sad to see how it affects the lives of those who have it and their loved ones.
