Painstaking madness, 30 minute sitcom life
Across the cobblestone court
Electric panic carrying images along the street
Swirling in a dance of sorrow
Families lively creating memories, caught up
Cast aside and lost, children faintly thought of
The schools playground frosted over
An echo of happiness bounces off her one celled mind
Deep set eyes carrying the weight of a thousand men
Pools of deep blue leaking the truth
Today she is only 17, as tomorrow she grows to a bitter 80
Irises weakly arouse the hollow of her nose
Grabbing out the faces that cried, twisted smiles
Babies round cheeked, pudgy hypnotic movements
Dissolving through the air ducts, discharging
Across the cobblestone court

This is a very touching poem. Life for the ones who have this horrible disease is most agonizing for the families. It is most difficult to watch your loved ones or anyone just fade away into this state of mind.
